Music from many nations and peoples, from the concert hall to the town square to the dance hall are featured on the opening concert of the 103rd season of the Columbus Symphony Orchestra.
A blend of the familiar and not so familiar will whet an international appetite: folk songs from England and Russia, dances from Bohemia and Sweden, a Spanish fantasy written by a French master and a rousing Sousa march to cap off an exciting afternoon of delightful music.
