Pops & Patriots at Caramoor: Celebrate Independence Day at Caramoor! The Westchester Symphonic Winds are back for their annual tribute to America’s independence with a program of works for symphonic winds including Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture and Stars and Stripes Forever, an Ellington Portrait, and a Gershwin medley performed by vocalists Candice Hoyes and Jorell Williams (both alumni of Caramoor’s Bel Canto Young Artist program).
Due to the ongoing pandemic, there will be no fireworks this year in order to prevent exceeding large gathering limitations.
