The CSO's tradition of great music extends beyond Music Hall in Classical Roots: Linking Cultures Through Music, part of the CSO's Sound Discoveries program. In partnership with area African-American churches, these concerts celebrate the African-American experience with diverse music selections and guest artists. Classical Roots concerts and activities serve the community
in non-traditional ways and create bridges between the CSO
and the neighborhoods of Greater Cincinnati.
These concerts are FREE and open to the public, with the exception of the Oct. 9 concert. For more information, call 513.621.1919. To order tickets for the Oct. 9 concert, please call 513.381.3300.
