Lying on the lawn, looking up at the stars a er a picnic dinner with wine, and listening to the music oat across the park was a fond memory my parents always had. e June 27 performance featuring Miriam Fried and the RSMI luminaries highlights their classical favorites, and with their support, will enable many others to enjoy the concert this summer. Megan P. and John L. Anderson Ravinia and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra have brought lasting enjoyment to our family for four generations.
