Ravinia Tickets have Arrived!

Our Gershwin tickets have arrived! Here are the deets:

Gershwin Gala
July 15, 7p
Lawn Seats
$11
This year's Women's Board Gala Benefit Evening will be a Gershwin Gala to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the composer's Ravinia concert of 1936, when people actually climbed trees to get a glimpse of him while he performed his Rhapsody in Blue. That work, which will be part of this year's Gala concert, demonstrates the fusion Gershwin was trying to create between jazz and classical symphonic forms. The program will also include selections from Porgy and Bess, which had its world premiere less than a year before Gershwin's Ravinia debut. Who could ask for anything more?

I'll distribute tix at Neha's bday dinner, please have cash for me then, thanks! :)
