Promising an entertaining evening filled with patriotic music, the annual 4th on the 3rd concert is adding more family-friendly activities to the festivities. Presented by Signature Symphony at Tulsa Community College, the Star-Spangled Symphony welcomes face-painting and photo booths featuring Statue of Liberty and Mount Rushmore.
The concert is at 7:30 p.m., Monday, July 3 at the VanTrease Performing Arts Center for Education on the TCC Southeast Campus at 81st Street and Highway 169.
“Wear your red, white and blue and come join us as we celebrate our country and take a musical journey through powerful and impactful patriotic works,” said Scott Seaton, Signature Symphony artistic director. “You can expect everything from our annual Armed Forces Salute to the music from “Mr. Holland’s Opus”.”
The evening’s program highlights the works of John Williams, Meredith Wilson, and John Philip Sousa and will conclude with the exciting finale from Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture, except with a twist. Andrea Bar, the 2023 Tulsa Sings! competition winner, will be the featured vocalist.
“We are excited to welcome Andrea Bar back to the Signature Symphony stage to share her amazing voice with Gershwin’s Someone to Watch Over Me and Stuff Like That There from the film For the Boys where it was performed by Bette Midler”
