GIVEAWAY: Tickets to the Talcott Mountain Music Festival on July 17th

This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to our winner, Dawn M.! Tickets for this Friday’s concert are still available at HartfordSymphony.org.

————————————

Disclosure: This giveaway is being sponsored by the Hartford Symphony Orchestra. All opinions expressed here are my own.

Word on the street is that there was a record-setting crowd at last week’s Talcott Mountain Music Festival performance, Celebrate America! The weather cooperated and attendees (including our giveaway winners!) enjoyed a night of patriotic music and spectacular fireworks. The concert series continues this Friday with a celebration of 20 Seasons in Simsbury and then is back NEXT week with the fourth concert in their series, Classical Night Fever.

You heard me right, it’s time to dust off your pale blue leisure suit or hot pink disco dress and get ready to dance the night away to the sounds of your favorite 70’s disco classics. AND for the fourth week in a row our readers will have the chance to enjoy this groovy concert for FREE by entering our giveaway for a Family Four-Pack of tickets to the Hartford Symphony Orchestra’s Talcott Mountain Music Festival!

Classical Night Fever, the popular 70’s disco symphony pops tribute show, has been touring nationally and receiving rave reviews since its inception in 2013. It’s a feel-good musical extravaganza you won’t soon forget! 

This world-class show features four powerhouses from the Planet Funktar: Superfly on guitar and vocals, Sir Rumpus Funkberry on bass guitar and vocals, Spanishfly on guitar and vocals and Cyclone Link Skywalker Jr. on drums and vocals. Each are highly skilled musicians and performers, but more than that, they’re on a mission – A mission to “funkitize” the masses by marrying the lavish sounds of the orchestra with brilliantly arranged disco hits by the likes of Donna Summer, The Bee Gees, Barry White, The Village People and more. They take the stage with stylin’ afros, head-turning retro costume changes and some of the coolest platform shoes this side of the Milky Way Galaxy!

Much of the 70’s disco music featured full orchestration and Classical Night Fever has carefully selected popular disco-era hits that highlight the majesty of the symphony orchestra. The show even incorporates some orchestra-only pieces, showcasing the Hartford Symphony Orchestra with 70’s TV and movie theme medleys. You’ll leave this show with a big smile on your face and a new appreciation for this great era of popular music, where dance music and the symphony collide to create something special. So get up off or your seat and bask in the lush disco sounds of the Hartford Symphony Orchestra and Classical Night Fever!
