Chicago Symphony Orchestra Collaborates with Morgan Freeman for a Blues Experience
Next week, the Chicago Symphony Orchestra will join forces with Morgan Freeman for the Symphonic Blues Experience at Ravinia. This event is the result of a collaboration between Freeman and his long-time business partner, Eric Meier, who has played a crucial role in bringing the essence of their blues club in Clarksdale, Mississippi, to a broader audience. Meier emphasizes the importance of preserving the genuine spirit of the blues while integrating it with the symphonic elements of the orchestra. This unique fusion aims to transport the rich musical heritage of the Mississippi Delta to audiences in the Midwest. The special performance is scheduled for August 1.
