On Tuesday, Feb. 28, the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra (ISO) will present the 33rd Annual Celebration of Black History Concert. Since 1984, the ISO has celebrated Black musicians by recognizing them through this era-spanning, genre-blending performance. This year, the symphony will continue that tradition and as an added feature, IMPD Officer Christopher Wilburn will accompany the ISO, as a singer in his Hilbert Circle Theatre debut. This free event invites people of all ages and backgrounds to witness the excellence of Black musical artists.
