Speaking of Music… (a giveaway!!!)

Are there any Dupage Mamas out there that love classical music? Catherine just posted about some new tunes that she is trialing to see if they make the cut for her iPod. But I know that deep down, her true favorite tunes are the classics.
If you are like Catherine and love the moving sound of strings and woodwinds, you should check out the Artist Series at Wheaton College. Several times a year, they bring in internationally renowned singers and orchestras and ballets and make them accessible for those who can’t make it to the city for a concert or performance. This Saturday is the second to last Artist Series performance of the year. Wheaton is welcoming the world- renowned Moscow State Radio 
Symphony Orchestra. Founded in 1978, the Moscow State Radio Symphony Orchestra began performing 18th, 19th, and 20th century works on Russian radio. The orchestra quickly expanded to television, and in 1980 it created a major subscription series in Moscows Tchaikovsky Hall and the Great Hall of the Moscow Conservatory. Since then, the orchestra has toured the United States and the world, even as it continues to faithfully record the best of Russian and European classical music.
Tickets to the concert can be purchased through the Artist Series website or by calling directly. Visit the site for more details. But why buy them, when you could win them?
I have been given 2 complimentary tickets in the front left center section for Saturday night’s 8pm performance. And while I do love classical music, I bet there are mamas out there that love it more than I do. So I would love to pass these tickets on to you! Leave a comment here with your name and e-mail to win the tickets. I will choose a winner Saturday morning and get the tickets to you even if I have to leave them at the Will Call window. Follow us on Twitter (@dupagemamas) or Facebook or subscribe to our feed and leave an additional comment for an additional entry. Or tell a friend for another chance to win. (And yes, Cath, you can enter to win if you want.)
Take advantage of this rare opportunity to see high-class entertainment without a trip downtown!
