In November 2008, the Chicago Sinfonietta will partner with the Chicago Humanities Festival in musically exploring the year’s Festival theme:

THINK BIG

We invite you to help us realize our "big idea" for this concert by joining us in selecting the most transformative classical music compositions ever written — works from various eras that truly changed the rules and affected everything that came after.

We'll perform 2 of the selections at Chicago's Symphony Center, Monday, November 10th at 7:30 pm

And to "change the game" even more, we hope to present a live streaming broadcast that evening (so you can see and hear the winning selections regardless of where you are) or post the performance as a downloadable video file on our website.

The survey is now closed. Thanks for participating!
