Instead of the usual, opt for an evening of class (and classics) by planning to see a performance of the Virginia Symphony Orchestra. Founded in 1920, these musicians carry on the impressive tradition of musical excellence with every piece of music they bring to life. The orchestra also maintains a busy schedule, as they present over 140 performances a year that include classical masterworks, pops, family, and dance series. Also, there are outdoor concerts that take place during the spring and fall months.
