Presented by Carmel Symphony Orchestra (CSO) and Hamilton County Parks and Recreation, the 7 p.m. performance will feature the critically-acclaimed quartet of Classical Mystery Tour musicians paying highest tribute to the Fab Four through musical stylings and spot-on delivery – all backed by the sensational symphonic sounds of the CSO led by Artistic Director Janna Hymes.

Hymes
“So excited about this performance!” said CSO Artistic Director Janna Hymes. “I mean, who doesn’t love the music of The Beatles? It’s universal, spans all ages, and when you combine those outstanding songs with the power and majesty of symphony orchestra, well, you have something really special – something more than your standard tribute concert. We want everyone to come and join us at Coxhall and celebrate the fantastic music of the ‘60s!”
Classical Mystery Tour has been hailed by Broadway World as “the world’s best Beatles show with symphony orchestra.” The Los Angeles Times wrote that Classical Mystery Tour elicits “a high goose-bump quotient … [it’s] more than just an incredible simulation … the crowd stood and bellowed for more.”
Coxhall Gardens will open for parking at 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 5. General Admission and Festival Terrace ticket holders should enter the park through the Towne Road entrance. Those with VIP Party and VIP Terrace tickets are requested to enter the park via the Hoover Road entrance. Rain date is Monday, Sept. 6.
