Piffaro

This week's Fanfare offerings include the choral drama Considering Matthew Shepard, a performance from both the Philadelphia Orchestra's winds and the full orchestra, "A Sousa Band Concert" from The Allentown Band, and more.

This week in Fanfare, we have acts ranging from an Astral performance for Jim Straw, to Esa Pekka-Salonen's return to Philadelphia, and even The Savoy Company's production of The Grand Duke.

This week offers an embarrassment of riches in Philadelphia, with a jam-packed schedule of live classical music in nearly every shape and size imaginable. Zev Kane has all the details, in Fanfare.

In this week's Fanfare, Meg Bragle highlights concerts by Piffaro, Mendelssohn Chorus, The Philadelphia Orchestra and more.
