Cupid strikes early when the New Britain Symphony Orchestra presents its Valentine’s Day “Pops” concert.

 The program includes orchestral selections and love songs by such legendary Broadway composers as George Gershwin, Richard Rodgers, Cole Porter, and Andrew Lloyd Webber. 

Maurice Peress conducts, and baritone Robert Weintraub and soprano Caroline Worra are the featured soloists.

“Everyone loves to celebrate love, and who does it better than Broadway?” observes Peress.  “Whether it’s a song from Camelot, Carousel, or Kiss Me Kate, this program features many of the famous tunes the Great White Way has given us to express the most ardent and intimate of human emotions.”
