BSO orchestrates 'Wizard of Oz'

The Wizard of Oz just got better. This Saturday the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Maestro Constantine Kitsopoulos, will perform every note of the full orchestral accompaniment to the film as it runs simultaneously on an overhead screen.

“This is a great program for families and film buffs,” said Kitsopoulos. “We performed it last Labor Day at the summer home of the Cleveland Orchestra and 15,000 people showed up.”
