Last night we welcomed the @MusiciansChiSym back to our theatre for the first time in over 100 years! An incredible evening of music and community, the performance commenced with audience members singing along to "The Star-Spangled Banner". 🎶

Perhaps the most heartfelt donation for the Chicago Symphony musicians occurred today, from the musicians of the Puerto Rico Symphony, who send their love and best wishes along with their financial contribution. @MusiciansChiSym @TuSinfonicaOSPR
