DSO Neighborhood Series March 20
The Detroit Symphony Orchestra’s Neighborhood Series returns to the Southfield Parks & Recreation Building on Wednesday, March 20 with the program “Flute & Strings Around the World”.

Take a world tour with a program DSO Principal Flute Hannah Hammel Maser describes as featuring “vibrant and lush chamber pieces for flute and strings.” Enjoy musical styles from America and Argentina, plus a short Italian stay with a string quartet by Hugo Wolf. When you reach Austria with the timeless genius of Mozart, you’ll know you’ve arrived. Joining Hammel on stage are talented artists such as Hai-Xin Wu (violin), Elizabeth Furuta (violin), Mike Chen (viola), and David Ledoux (cello).

General Admission tickets are $15 per person and can be purchased on the Detroit Symphony Orchestra's website at www.dso.org/chamber or by calling (313) 576-5111
