Summer with Sinfonietta

Join us all around Chicagoland for a variety of fun events!

Chicago Sinfonietta’s own Janice MacDonald (principal flute) and Laura Hamm (section flute) offer a breezy, hour-long performance in the beautiful natural surroundings of the Chicago Botanic Garden as part of their Morning Music series.

Morning music events run rain or shine, and will be moved to Nichols Hall on days with inclement weather. Free with admission to Chicago Botanic Garden.
