Nice gesture from the Grand Rapids Symphony (music director Marcelo Lehninger):

In recognition of the extraordinary sacrifices healthcare providers are making to keep us safe and healthy, the Grand Rapids Symphony is offering two free tickets (to all healthcare workers) to a 2020 D&W Fresh Market Picnic Pops concert at Cannonsburg Ski Area in July.

  • Mustafa Kandan says:

    They are over optimistic that they will be able give those concerts. This situation will at least take 6-12 months to resolve.

  • Argentum says:

    The music director of the GR Symphony is *Marcelo* Lehninger, not *Marco.*

    I was just at one of their performances earlier this month, and Joshua Bell was in the audience (his wife was the featured soloist).

  • Guest says:

    It is Marcelo Lehninger, not Marco.
