On Saturday, the Dallas Symphony Orchestra and some of the city’s most talented and innovative young musical present a special one-night only concert. The concert is imagined by and presented in partnership with the Dallas Symphony’s Teen Council and features musicians from the Greater Dallas Youth Orchestra and the Booker T. Washington High School Young Women’s Chorus performing alongside the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. The concert, programmed in part by the teen council with other teens in mind, features A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Felix Mendelssohn’s fanciful take on Shakespeare’s classic comedy of romantic errors. Eighteen-year-old violinist Christine Wu, winner of the Lynn Harrell Concerto Competition, will also perform a movement of Jean Sibelius’ Violin Concerto. The orchestra’s newly appointed assistant conductor, Karina Canellakis, conducts. The concert (which will be followed by an afterparty also designed with teens in mind) starts at 7:30 p.m. and takes place at the Meyerson Symphony Center (2301 Flora St.) For tickets and more information, visit
