Symphonic Insights was recently launched by The Symphony League of Kansas City as a new quarterly learning series designed to give members further insight into the inner workings of the Kansas City Symphony. Held at The Capital Grille, the inaugural lunch featured Elena Lence Talley, the Symphony’s principal music librarian since 1992. Her fascinating stories about providing sheet music for the entire cast of each production captivated guests. The Symphony Ball will be held on September 12th at Union Station Kansas City.
