Cello Spotlight
Since joining The Cleveland Orchestra as Principal Cello in 2010, Mark Kosower has appeared frequently as a featured soloist. This week, he performs Bohuslav Martinů’s First Cello Concerto at Blossom, which he calls “uplifting, inspired music … perfect for a summertime performance at Blossom.” (read Kosower’s full interview here).

Sips and Songs
Broadway, film, and television superstar Idina Menzel returns to Blossom this Sunday for the first time since her Cleveland Orchestra debut in 2011. Just as in 2011, her performance pairs perfectly with events supporting The Cleveland Orchestra’s summer sanctuary at Blossom. Immerse yourself in an evening of great drinks, good vibes, and lush greenery at The Spritz, a cocktail hour with hors d’oeuvres and unlimited spritzes before this dazzling concert.
