PSO season opens with a "Carnival!" and community engagement

This week, we're talking with the Peoria Symphony Orchestra's George Stelluto, and with violinist Charles Yang, who performs with the PSO in their upcoming concert. They talk about some of the pieces on the program, which includes music from John Corigliano's "The Red Violin" and a piece by Edward Jospeh Collins inspired by Mardi Gras. They also talk about some of Yang's appearances and activities, in conjunction with the PSO's Resident Artist Week initiative.

The concert will be presented Saturday night at 8:00 at the Peoria Civic Center Theatre.
