The songs of Carole King, Joni Mitchell and more, reimagined with a symphony orchestra.
The plan
The North Carolina Symphony and guest vocalists revisit music associated with Carole King, Joni Mitchell, the Eagles and the Mamas & the Papas. These are symphonic interpretations of familiar songs, not appearances by the original artists. The program offers a relaxed entry point for anyone whose musical favorites start with songwriting rather than classical repertoire.
Make the most of it
Choose Friday or Saturday at 8pm. A familiar song can sound different when a full orchestra takes it on; try listening for the instrumental lines around the vocal rather than expecting an exact recreation of a recording. Make it a shared evening with someone who knows a different era of the music.
