Summer & the Symphony's Grand Finale promises to be the summer's can't-miss musical event! Chris Noth—known for his role on HBO's Sex and the City as Mr. Big and currently appearing on CBS’s The Good Wife—will narrate Copland's Lincoln Portrait, an undisputed American masterpiece. The spectacular finale also includes the UC Berkeley Marching Band in a performance of the hit Broadway tune "Seventy-Six Trombones."

Arrive one hour prior to the concert for music and dancing with the Martini Brothers, plus desserts and specialty drinks.

Meet Alondra de la Parra and Sara Davis Buechner at an exclusive CD signing immediately following the concert at the Symphony Store in the lobby.
