The Livermore-Amador Symphony is again offering people of all ages the chance to hear a lively performance outdoors, with its free POPS on the Green concert this Saturday afternoon on the lawn in front of the Bankhead Theater.
Symphony music director and conductor Lara Webber will narrate the show, and the bill will span “from movie and memory themes to marches”, according to LAS officials. “See how much fun we have in one hour!”
The concert will include music from James Bond movies, “Mary Poppins”, “Jurassic Park”, “Apollo 13” and more, according to the symphony. In addition to its full symphonic orchestra of more than 60 musicians, the LAS show will also feature local teenage jazz band Element 116.
Symphony officials urge attendees to bring a picnic basket, blankets and chairs — and even consider wearing a costume — to enjoy the concert. Kids will even be invited up to the stage to guest-conduct the musicians.
The POPS concert is set for 3-4 p.m. Saturday (Sept. 28) in the Bankhead Plaza in downtown Livermore. No tickets required. To learn more, visit livermoreamadorsymphony.org.
