Big Ben's Odyssey April 25, 2009

Chicago Symphony Chorus Director Duain Wolfe brings us the story of "Big" Ben, a young man lost in the British Isles who embarks on an odyssey in search of his home, encountering lots of musical adventures along the way. He begins in Ireland, crosses the Irish Sea, passing the Hebrides Islands en route to Scotland, and finally makes his way through England to London. When he hears the magnificent bells at Westminster, he realizes that he has found his way home to the clock that bears his name! The performance features members of the Chicago Symphony, the Trinity Academy of Irish Dance and guest artists Rachael Crim and Andrew Keltz.
