School Concert Week March 19-21 In March, we will assist in bringing approximately 20,000 students into the Tanger Center to enjoy a dynamic concert by the full Greensboro Symphony. This year’s program features a diverse lineup of musical styles, including NC hip-hop artist Joshua “Rowdy” Rowsey, film music, and compositions by modern and diverse composers such as Kevin Day, Molly Joyce, and Armando Bayolo, among others. Audiences will also be treated to orchestral classics – all performed by the talented musicians of the Greensboro Symphony Orchestra! Grimsley High School Senior Declan Oberlies will showcase his talent on a unicycle alongside the GSO. Partnering with the GSO for this year’s Education Concerts is the non-profit organization Bikes for Kids.
