Pacific Symphony Heads To Dana Point's Pines Park This Month

DANA POINT, CA — The Pacific Symphony is going mobile this summer, and Dana Point residents won't have to leave the city for a chamber music concert.

The symphony's Symphony on the Go program will head to Pines Park on June 29 for a free concert starting at 7 p.m. Members of the symphony's Woodwind Quintet will play music by several composers, including George Gershwin, George Frideric Handel and Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Residents are encouraged to bring blankets and lawn chairs to use as seating for the outdoor concert, Dana Point officials said.

The Symphony on the Go program is a "community concert experience" that travels across Orange County using a mobile stage on wheels, according to the Pacific Symphony's website.

The Symphony on the Go's schedule for the summer is:

• Garden Grove's Eastgate Park on Friday
• Buena Park's Ehlers Event Center on July 1
• Santa Ana's Thornton Park on July 22
• Mission Viejo's St. Kilian Church on July 29
• Laguna Hills' Florence Sylvester Senior Center on Aug. 26
• Dana Point's Dana Crest Park on Aug. 27
• Ladera Ranch's Oso Grande Elementary School on Aug. 28
