SUNSET SYMPHONY (ORION FREE CONCERT SERIES)

About This Event

The Memphis Symphony Orchestra returns to the Overton Park Shell for this annual community tradition featuring the sensational MSO Big Band. Bring your blanket and picnic basket for an unforgettable evening of music under the stars.

The MSO Big Band was founded in 2010 to highlight the virtuosic range and talent of the MSO musicians. The MSO Big Band performs timeless classics and new arrangements in styles from dance band to big band, samba, and many more.

The MSO Big Band also holds and preserves the historical musical archive of the Peabody Hotel Skyway Ballroom Big Band, which was one of the select locations of nation-wide syndicated Big Band radio broadcasts in the early part of the 20th century. A young Sam Phillips was one of the broadcasters for these “Big Band Remotes” before going on to found Sun Studios.
