Burns Park

The Chicago Symphony Orchestra returns to Ann Arbor for the first time in over a decade, led by their new music director Klaus Mäkelä. Expect a transportive evening: Beethoven's triumphant Seventh Symphony paired with Berlioz's hallucinatory Symphonie fantastique, a fever-dream of obsessive love and opium-fueled nightmares.
