Meyerson Symphony Center

Former First Lady Laura Bush proudly serves as Honorary Chair of this performance recognizing our nation's military serving both near and far. In 2009, the United States Army Chorus, direct from Washington, D.C., made its Meyerson Symphony Center debut alongside the Turtle Creek Chorale to a sold-out house.

For their return, the Army Chorus brings selections from The Great American Songbook. Enjoy the music of George and Ira Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Stephen Foster, Rodgers & Hammerstein and many, many more!
