This special season finale will feature the Red River Chorale, ULM University Chorus, and four high-level soloists. RSO is hosting a full Day of Music where local school ensembles, church vocal groups and community musicians will perform free, non-stop musical entertainment in downtown Alexandria for our community to enjoy. In the week leading up to the performance, we plan a screening of the documentary film Following the Ninth: in the Footsteps of Beethoven's Final Symphony. This film follows the global impact of the piece across five continents and ten countries.
