This concert, titled Tom Hanksgiving, will feature music from movies starring actor, Tom Hanks. A veritable feast of musical magic and mayhem await concertgoers as the SoundTrack Chamber Orchestra performs selections from some of Mr. Hanks’s greatest films such as Joe vs. the Volcano, Sleepless in Seattle, Forrest Gump, and more, with some surprises thrown in.Admission to this concert is free and there is no ticket. Donations are greatly appreciated, as this wonderful ensemble solely exists based on donations from their audiences.
