Chicago Sinfonietta will return to Cantigny Park this summer for the third year in row to present a festive and fun-filled program celebrating Americana. Featuring Waubonsie Valley High School's incredible Mosaic Choir and a finale of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture that will truly end with a big bang, this program is the perfect way to end the summer before we kick off our regular 2016/17 season concerts!
With special guest emcee Regina Waldroup from NBC 5 Chicago.
