Each May, the Alpharetta Symphony offers a Memorial Day concert that is free and open to the public. This year, we will honor our nation with a slate of patriotic tunes and big band hits that celebrate the most American of music - jazz. Join us for an afternoon in the park. Bring a blanket, some chairs, a picnic, and the whole family to enjoy music by the bandstand!
