The Dallas Symphony Orchestra announces the second annual Circle T Ranch Music Festival set to take place November 18-20 at Circle T Ranch in Westlake, Texas. The festival, planned in partnership with the Perot family, features a three-day concert series to take place on an expansive outdoor stage. Audiences can enjoy both contemporary and classical music as well as a modern bluegrass music performance on the scenic Ranch grounds.
The Dallas Symphony's inaugural festival in the fall of 2021 was a great success, and we are thrilled to return to Westlake and this beautiful venue,
said Dallas Symphony Orchestra President & CEO Kim Noltemy. We are, again, thankful to Sarah and Ross Perot, Jr. for their support of the DSO for decades and for the opportunity to collaborate at Circle T Ranch.
The festival will kick off with The Steep Canyon Rangers on Friday, November 18 at 7:00 p.m. GRAMMY® Award winner and perennial Billboard chart-topper SCR has become the most recognizable modern name in bluegrass music, most notably due to their frequent partnership with comedian and banjoist Steve Martin. The band will bring their incredible style to Westlake for a solo show. (This event will not include the Dallas Symphony Orchestra or Steve Martin.)
Music Director Fabio Luisi (Louise W. & Edmund J. Kahn Music Directorship) will make his Circle T Music Festival debut on Saturday, November 19 at 2:00 p.m. Luisi and the DSO will present a rousing afternoon concert of light classics including Viennese polkas and waltzes such as the Blue Danube.
On Sunday, November 20 at 7:00 p.m., Dallas Symphony Assistant Conductor Maurice Cohn (Marena & Roger Gault Chair) will lead a program of Americana music. Families and audiences of all ages will delight in the sounds of American and American-influenced composers as well as works with influences and styles of the many cultures that make up our great country.
Along with performances, the family-friendly festival will feature food trucks and a number of pre-concert activities for everyone in the family, ranging from face-painting to instrument demonstrations. Tickets for the Circle T Ranch Music Festival are $25 each for adults and $5 tickets for children 12 and under. Tickets are available now at www.dallassymphony.org. A limited number of VIP packages are available. More information on the VIP package, contact Alex Small at a.small 'at' dalsym.com.
