While listening to a radio station dedicated to classical music‚ my grandpa heard about a concert starring Kirk Muspratt and the New Philharmonic orchestra.

The pops concert at Sartell High School took place at 7:30 p.m. in the auditorium‚ and the concert band performed four pieces. The first song played was Pippin.

Concert Report Before the last days of the class I was looking for a new concert to write about and I had a chance to go a live music concert on May 3.
