Classical music in West Virginia and Beyond

July 4 in WV (Classical Edition)

Like some classical music favorites with your fireworks and cookouts? Not all of these concerts are actually on July 4^th, but most of them are close.

The Ohio Valley Symphony is playing their first July 4^th concert! They will be performing at 8pm at Gallipolis City Park .

Also on July 4^th, the WV Symphony will perform in Charleston at Haddad Riverfront Park, on the levee alongside the Kanawha River.

The Wheeling Symphony will be on tour from July 3 through July 6^th in Fort Nutter, Davis, Wheeling, and Weirton.

The Huntington Symphony won’t be performing on Independence Day, but they’ll have music when everyone else is taking a break later in the month. Their next summer pops concert is on Saturday July 25^th (and here's an interview with their conductor).

I'm sad that I'll miss out on getting to hear the WV Symphony and watch fireworks over the river in Charleston. As part of the crazy road trip I’m on right now, I will get to catch the Dallas Wind Symphony on July 4^th, which ain’t bad at all. I’ll see you next week, West Virginia!
