New Philharmonic and Music Director and Conductor Kirk Muspratt present a program of romantic favorites in “Valentine’s Pops”. The program includes classics of love including Tchaikovsky’s finest ballet score “Sleeping Beauty Waltz” and the beloved overture from “Romeo and Juliet” as well as Broadway tunes from “Camelot” and “Porgy and Bess.” Love themes from the movies include “Superman” and “Forest Gump,” while “Con te Partiro” and “Il Postino” deliver heartthrob memories. With romance music from Broadway, film and television, as well as Sting’s “Every Breath You Take,” this Valentine’s celebration is perfect for lovers, families and friends.“Valentine’s Pops” features baritone soloist Corey Grigg. Immediately following the performance there will be a free post-show “Cookies with Kirk” reception with conductor Muspratt but, in honor of the holiday, featuring champagne, small tarts, and strawberries instead of the cookies.
