In this new kind of concert performance, the Illinois Symphony Orchestra percussion ensemble and piano trio will perform in the C-Mill as one of the Beyond the Stage concert series experiences. "The musicians will be surrounded by the spray-painted murals created by local artists, as well as the rich patina of the 87-year-old factory floor, which will provide for a unique acoustic experience beyond the traditional concert hall," according to the organizers. The ticketed performance includes hors d'oeuvres, along with a cash bar. Proceeds from the event, co-hosted by Moving Pillsbury Forward, will support the ISO. ilsymphony.org. Tickets range from $40 to $50.
