Go for Baroque | Memphis Symphony Orchestra

The Memphis Symphony Orchestra (MSO)’s Paul and Linnea Bert Classic Accents concert series opens at Crosstown Theatre and later continues at the Scheidt Family Performing Arts Center.

Darel Snodgrass spoke with guest conductor Anne Harrigan, Music Director of the Battle Creek Symphony Orchestra and the Billings Symphony, about bridging these two distinct yet connected musical eras.

I began piano lessons at age 6, trumpet at age 9, and began teaching myself the guitar at 10. My electronics knowledge comes from my father, who had the RCA television and stereo shop in my hometown of Pocahontas, Arkansas for nearly 20 years. My dad is still fixing televisions at age 79.
