Program 2202 -- Mary Chapin Carpenter and Michael Moschen
On Monday, July 13 at 8pm ET (check local listings), singer-songwriter Mary
Chapin Carpenter favors Symphony Hall with a sampling of her many country and
folk music hits. The recipient of five Grammys and two Country Music
Association Awards, Carpenter has established herself as an artist whose
talents bridge several musical genres. From her first platinum record, Shooting
Straight in the Dark, Carpenter offers "Down at the Twist and Shout" and the
title song from her Grammy Award-winning album, Stones in the Road. Also on the
bill is performance artist Michael Moschen. 
A former circus clown, Moschen's
innovative blend of illusion, mime, light, motion, and juggling is a sight to
behold. Keith Lockhart and the Boston Pops Orchestra take Moschen's art to new
heights by pairing his breathtaking visual display with music by Stravinsky,
Mascagni, Gounod, and Irving Berlin.Concert Program
