Sundays with the Symphony had its premiere on Sunday, May 19th, at 7 pm at the Mainzer Theater. It featured the amazingly talented pianist John Wilson with a carefully crafted repertoire and selections of Shakespeare's works, monologues and sonnets, spoken by Colton Dennis, Alyssa McCabe, and Heike Hambley. This collaboration dealt with themes of love, under the title "If music be the food of love, play on."
