JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Jacksonville Symphony is bringing back Starry Nights after a 10-year hiatus. Performing with the orchestra on Saturday will be Chicago, followed by Christopher Cross on June 7.
"Thousands of residents remember the wonderful outdoor concerts in Metropolitan Park, as the orchestra collaborated with some of the great pop talents," said David Pierson, president of the Jacksonville Symphony Association.
Leading off Starry Nights is Chicago, an American band formed in 1967. Chicago is a self-described "rock and roll band with horns." Chicago was inducted this year into the Grammy Hall of Fame.
