Wisconsin Public Radio’s third annual Classical Music Day will give student musicians from schools, universities and youth ensembles the chance to perform in a professional concert setting at the Bradley Symphony Center, home of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, on Wednesday, Oct. 14.
WPR reported that the 6:30 p.m. concert will feature four area music programs taking the stage in sequence: the Milwaukee Youth Symphony Orchestra, Wisconsin Conservatory of Music, Marquette University Chorus alongside the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee Peck School of the Arts Concert Chorale, and the Oconomowoc Wind Symphony.
According to WPR, the event brings together student musicians from schools, universities and youth ensembles for the experience of performing in a professional concert venue while the audience celebrates the talent and dedication of young musicians in southeast Wisconsin communities.
WPR Music’s Milwaukee-based Drivetime Classics host Jason Heilman will introduce the performers and talk with students on-stage between performances, WPR reported.
Admission is free and open to all ages, with doors opening at 6 p.m. WPR encouraged attendees to RSVP but said registration is not required.
