The end of the summer season is also the beginning of the Cape Cod Symphony season, and a highlight for all of us. The upcoming calendar promises a delightful variety featuring works from Mozart to Stravinsky, opera to love songs.
The Cape Cod Symphony is a marvelous entity, featuring the world-class Director and Conductor Jung-Ho Pak and a bounty of extremely talented musicians. Performances are held at the Barnstable Performing Arts Center, a 1400-seat concert hall on Main Street in Hyannis, Massachusetts. Grab your calendars and book a date or two to enjoy these upcoming performances—with a stay at Whalewalk Inn, of course!
