All is fair in love and war…or is it? Chicago Sinfonietta’s astonishing 30th anniversary season comes to a blockbuster close with a concert mashup that puts gospel, classical, and a nonconformist marching band in one epic program that will turn this love-themed concert on its head! From romance to spirituality and passion to battle, emotions will run high from beginning to epic finish as the Sinfonietta orchestra teams up with the Apostolic Church of God Sanctuary Choir to blow the roof off during the first half — followed by the ultimate “Battle of the Bands” rematch between Sinfonietta and their marching band friends Mucca Pazza, to the tune of Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet Suite, and then -- the Ending of all Endings! Go Big or Go Home...right? You don't want to miss this! Edward Kelsey Moore will be performing among his Sinfonietta colleagues for these concerts.
