You can win a pair of tickets to the Fresno Philharmonic’s first Masterworks concert of the season, billed as “Curtain Up: Bernstein & Strauss” (3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 22, Saroyan Theatre). The program includes Rei Hotoda conducting Bernstein’s vivacious “Candide” and Strauss’ “Der Rosenkavalier,” along with Vivian Fung’s “Earworms” (a feisty and whimsical orchestral piece depicting the distractions and multitasking of contemporary life) and guest artist Cecile Licad on piano, who joins the orchestra for Saint-Saëns’ brilliant Piano Concerto No. 2.
The contest is open only to members, donors and individual sponsors of The Munro Review. Tax-deductible memberships start at $5 a month, and you can make a one-time donation of as little as $3. (Paid memberships help keep the site running, and paid members get special members-only benefits. Please consider a paid membership in support of independent, local arts journalism.) A free membership option is available. For details on how to join, go to the Membership and Sponsorship page. No purchase, donation or membership is necessary to enter the ticket giveaway.
To enter this giveaway, leave a reply on this post (see below) answering this question: What song is your biggest earworm? (If you’re shy, you can just say why you’d like to attend.) Deadline to enter is 10 a.m. Friday, Sept. 20. The winner will be picked at random and notified by email.
