"First Friday" with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra - Feb. 7

Don’t spend your Friday night in traffic — spend it
with the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra (ASO)! On Friday, February 7, 2014,
guest conductor James Feddeck will lead the Orchestra in
Elgar’s Enigma Variations and Paganini’s Violin Concerto No. 1 with
Augustin Hadelich.

This concert is the second of five “First Friday”
classical concerts to be held at 6:30 p.m. in Atlanta Symphony Hall. These
concerts last approximately one hour without intermission, and all tickets
are $25.

Patrons are encouraged to arrive to the Woodruff
Arts Center beginning at 5:00 p.m. for drink specials and light fare in soundstage
— the Arts Center’s new “pop-up” nightlife scene. Soundstage is open on
the first Friday of every month and allows guests to enjoy food, drinks,
and good company in a relaxed environment. In addition, guests can take pleasure
in live music, improv comedy, and spoken word performances created by the
artists of the Atlanta Symphony, Alliance Theatre, and more.
