To celebrate the Leonard Bernstein Centennial, on July 26 Leah Crocetto joins the Chicago Symphony Orchestra lead by Marin Alsop as one of the soloists in Mahler’s Symphony No. 8, also known as the “Symphony of a Thousand” because it requires huge instrumental and vocal forces.

Among the other soloists are Angela Meade, Jeanine De Bique, Michelle DeYoung, Kelley O’Connor, Clay Hilley, Paulo Szot and Ryan Speedo Green.
