Our very own Birmingham String Orchestra was featured in the Local section of the Birmingham News today (12/2)! If you missed the paper, there is also an article online here. Be sure to check out the video of BSO performing Firefly Sky at EPIC elementary school!

BSO traveled to 3 local schools yesterday (Dec. 1) to perform for students. They performed at Phillips Academy and EPIC Elementary School, both Birmingham City Schools, and Gwin Elementary, a Hoover City School. The Birmingham Prelude Strings will be traveling on Friday (Dec. 3) to Brown Elementary, a Birmingham City School, and St. Francis Xavier Catholic School.
