On Thursday evening the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra played the second of its three free Piedmont Park concerts this month, this one led by the ASO’s new assistant conductor, Joseph Young. As with the previous concert led by guest conductor Gemma New, this concert also drew a capacity audience of about 3,000, limited by its location in the Promenade area on the park’s north side. Young will again lead the orchestra at Piedmont Park next Thursday, but tickets became available for that concert only Friday morning and within a few hours were completely sold out.

Our fantastic colleagues at the 3rd Piedmont Park concert of the season. Thursday night was a nice backdrop for a concert in the Park with good friends, great music and a beautiful summer evening.
