In addition to the concert, Texas Music Festival will be hosting a Celebration on the Plaza complete with performances by Virtuosi of Houston, refreshments by local food trucks, a complimentary beer garden donated by St. Arnold Brewing Company, and a lecture by Dr. Andrew Davis, noted author and Associate Professor of Music Theory, who will provide contextual information and insights about the evening’s repertoire.
