Symphony summer concerts in the park move to Long Center
The Austin Symphony Orchestra is moving its popular Hartman Foundation Concerts in the Park to the new Long Center for the Performing Arts.
The free Sunday evening concerts will now be on the Long Center’s City Terrace with its expansive view of downtown Austin and Lady Bird Lake. Audiences are invited to bring a picnic dinner and a blanket and take a seat on the Long Center’s lawn.
The family-friendly events feature smaller ensembles from the Austin Symphony playing everything from jazz and light classical to pops selections and film scores. Concerts begin at 7:30 p.m. every Sunday from June 1 through August 24. Admission is free.
Call 476-6064 or visit www.austinsymphony.org for more information.
