It's a vocal tribute to his remarkable talent.

There will never be another Luther Vandross, and no other voice comes closer to him than Ruben Studdard. The remarkable singer was hailed as the "next Luther" during his American Idol run, and was nominated for a Grammy for singer “Superstar.” For information visit www.wallstreettheater.com

We are thrilled to welcome back violinist Sirena Huang to the HSO to share this 1,000-year-old legend, which journeys from the joyful pentatonic youthful friendship to the final scene of two lovers turning into butterflies to be together forever.” – Carolyn Kuan, HSO Musical Director - for show times visit www.hartfordsymphony.org
