The North Carolina Symphony and WUNC 91.5FM have partnered to present great music for a summer evening all season long. From now until August 29, favorite Symphony performances will be broadcast every Monday night from 10:00 p.m. to midnight and stream online at wunc.org.
Legendary broadcaster David Hartman hosts a program of music recorded live in Raleigh's Meymandi Concert Hall, as well as interviews and insights into some of the finest compositions ever written.
Tonight's program features guest conductor Carlos Miguel Prieto leading the North Carolina Symphony in a powerhouse orchestral showcase.

"It is doubtless a source of orchestral pride that all the principals can display that lofty level of talent," wrote Classical Voice North Carolina writer Paul D. Williams following the concert's live performance in February, going on to label the evening, "A crowd-pleasing success all the way."
North Carolina Symphony broadcasts on WUNC 91.5FM are supported by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina. Learn more about tonight's program and upcoming broadcasts at wunc.org/programs/north-carolina-symphony-concert-series.
