Join fellow MIT alumni and friends for dinner and an evening Columbus Symphony concert on Saturday, May 17. As part of its annual Russian composer festival, the Symphony will perform both the Tchaikovsky Violin Concerto and the Tchaikovsky Symphony No. 6 (“Pathetique”). Maestro Rossen Milanov will conduct, and Aubree Oliverson is the soloist. Discounted tickets with loge seating are just $80 through us for this event.

We will meet for dinner prior to the performance at 5:45 at the Spaghetti Warehouse, 150 S. High St, a short three minute walk from the Ohio Theatre. A Symphony member or senior staff person will brief us about the program, soloist, and composer. Dinner is not included in the price. We will order from the menu, and it is a Dutch treat. (You can join us for dinner if you already have purchased tickets separately; register for the “Dinner only” option or email Dave so we can give the restaurant the correct count.) Paid parking is available at the nearby Statehouse Underground Parking Garage and the Columbus Commons Underground Parking Garage.

The trails are smooth, well-maintained and run along the Des Plaines river.  We will follow along the Des Plaines River to Robinson Park.
