Published: September 17, 2009 By Nancy V. Mills, APR

SUGAR LAND – Threatening rain may have forced the Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra to reschedule its free outdoor concert to Oct. 3, but members are still eager to share their musical gifts with the community. So bring your lawn chair and get ready to enjoy Disney tunes, show pieces and rousing patriotic songs as the Orchestra presents “When You Wish Upon A Star” on Saturday, Oct. 3 beginning at 7:30 p.m. in Sugar Land Town Square

This outdoor concert is the Orchestra’s free gift to the community. With Disney tunes from The Lion King, Aladdin and both Fantasia movies, it makes a great family outing. The evening also includes a salute to members of the U.S. Armed Forces.

Tickets are still available for the Fort Bend Symphony Orchestra’s 18th season, which includes four concerts – October through May – at the Stafford Centre. In light of the rescheduled outdoor concert, the Orchestra has extended its Buy One, Get One Free ticket offer for season subscriptions through Oct. 7. Individual ticket prices for adults range from $10 to $25 per concert. Senior and student prices start at just $5. Children 12 and under are free, but must have a reserved ticket.
