Concert to celebrate the music of Tony Bennett

The Hershey Symphony Orchestra will present the U.S. debut of the all-new production "Tony Bennett: The Official Musical Celebration," a live show honoring the life and music of Tony Bennett, on Saturday, Oct. 26, at 7:30 p.m. The event will be held at the Hershey Theatre, 15 E. Caracas Ave., Hershey.

Using the original musical arrangements of the 20-time Grammy Award-winning artist, the performance will feature the symphony along with Broadway vocalists. Audiences can expect to hear songs such as such as "I Left My Heart in San Francisco," "Rags to Riches," and "Because of You."

"We're thrilled to be working with TCG Entertainment, Iconoclast, and the Tony Bennett estate to bring this spectacular tribute to Mr. Bennett to our audience," said Susan Cort, executive director of the Hershey Symphony. "It's exciting to be the first city on the tour for what is sure to be an unbelievable show."
