Daily Herald | Chicago Sinfonietta honors Martin Luther King Jr., with ‘Pulse’

by CMO / Thursday, 11 January 2024 / Published in Recent Press

“If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward,” said Martin Luther King, Jr.

The Chicago Sinfonietta, one of the most diverse orchestras in the United States, follows the legacy of Dr. King. Every year, it organizes tribute concerts devoted to Martin Luther King Jr., and every year these concerts attract a great number of people who honor Dr. King and who love classical music.
