Need Some SPACE?

Are you feeling cramped and earthbound? Unwind on the wide, green grounds of Deer Path Park Thursday, June 24th at 7pm and let the CELESTIAL SOUNDS of the HUNTERDON SYMPHONY Pops Concert transport you.

Music at a heavenly price: This concert is FREE.

What else is great about the Pops Concert? - Your children don't need to sit still and behave. Hand them a frisbee and send them into orbit. Out behind the lounging listeners, reclining on their lawn chairs and blankets, the distant, happy sounds of children-not-made-to-stay-quiet blend with the crickets and chirping summer birds as YOU renew your ability to breathe, peacefully enjoying the HUNTERDON SYMPHONY perform music-you-know, including themes from Star Trek, Hair, E.T., 2001: A Space Odyssey, as well as Mars and Jupiter from The Planets, by Gustav Holst.

The kids may think they are inside a video game, when they stop in their tracks to listen, suddenly recognizing the music from Halo, Civilization and Star Wars coming live through the twilight. (Combine that with a visit to the ice cream truck usually standing by on-site, and they won't know what century they are in...)

The concert will be conducted by Lawrence Kursar, and is presented by the Hunterdon County Department of Parks and Recreation with Hunterdon Musical Arts, as part of the MUSIC UNDER THE STARS series. Deer Path Park is located next to the Hunterdon County YMCA, at 120 West Woodschurch Road (off Route 31), Flemington, NJ 08822.
