The concert features Holst's majestic The Planets, Op. 32, followed by Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, orchestrated by Ravel. These remarkable pieces highlight the Cape Ann Symphony's incredible talent and commitment to exceptional performances.

Luke Bulla  has been singing and playing music most of his life. Touring with and singing in his family band from age four, Luke took up the fiddle at seven. Over the course of the next few years, he won the National Fiddle Contest (in Weiser, Idaho) six times in his respective age categories. His seventh win came in the Grand Champion division at age sixteen, making him the youngest to have earned the title at the time. Entering Nashville’s Grand Master Fiddle Championship at age ten, Luke distinguished himself by being the youngest person to have made the top ten. In the spring of 1999, Luke moved to Nashville to establish himself as a full time musician. He spent his early years in Tennessee playing fiddle in Ricky Skaggs’ band, Kentucky Thunder, which earned him his first Grammy Award. In addition to violin, Luke plays guitar and mandolin, and sings and writes songs.
