The Lima Symphony Orchestra returns to the campus of Ohio Northern University to put on their seventh "Patriotic Pops" concert, besides getting everybody in the Fourth of July mood with marches from John Phillips Sousa and a salute to all the branches of the armed forces, the symphony put some pop music in the pops concert with a melody of Michael Jackson tunes and music from Star Wars. Over one thousand people were there to enjoy the music and the symphony is glad to bring this free concert back to Ada, to help kick off the holiday.
“It is a wonderful celebration, it’s a Patriotic Pops concert and there is something so great about being outdoors, and having a free concert, and have people come and bring their picnics, their lawn chairs, and just celebrate being together and celebrating the independence of the country.”
The Lima Symphony Orchestra’s new season kicks off on October 22nd with a “Folklore and Fusion” concert.
