The Grant Park Music Festival is a 10-week classical music concert series held annually in Chicago, Illinois’ Millennium Park. Featuring the Grant Park Orchestra and Chorus, it is one of the only free outdoor classical-music concert series in the US.

Conductor Laureate Carlos Kalmar returns for Sibelius’s majestic Symphony No. 2, an emblem of Finnish nationalism written at a time of cultural and linguistic suppression. Christopher Theofanidis’s Drum Circle makes its Chicago premiere, featuring the virtuosic musicians of Third Coast Percussion.
