WORLD Friday, July 1, 2011, 7:30 pm Brent Havens, conductor PREMIERE The concept of a rock band playing with an orchestra may seem strange, but it is one of the most electrifying concerts you’ll ever experience. Houston audiences have embraced the concept of showcasing timeless rock classics with the power of a full symphony orchestra like favorites from Windborne Music’s The Music of Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Queen. Now join us for the world premiere of The Music of The Who! Hear The Who classics like “My Generation,” “Pinball Wizard,” “Who Are You,” “You Better You Bet” and the “Tommy Overture.”
