- Hi, I'm Peter Whorf with 90.9 WRCJ.
The weekend is just ahead and there's a lot to check out around the metro area.
Let's get to it.
On Friday morning at the Detroit Symphony Orchestra it's Brahm's 4th's symphony with Maestro Jader Bignamini with pianist George Lee for Rachmaninoff's beautiful second piano concerto.
WRCJ will also broadcast the concert at 10:40 AM on Friday.
And if you're in Detroit this Friday night you can check out the stars at a free planetarium show at the Wayne State University Planetarium, shows are at six and 7:30 PM.
Seating's limited, so make your reservation if you want to grab a spot.
Also, this Friday night in Dearborn the Ramadan Suhoor Festival kicks off outside Fairlane Town Center.
Marking the first weekend of Ramadan, the festival will run every weekend from 10:30 PM to 3:00 AM through April 15th.
Through Sunday, March 26th, music lovers can enjoy the Stephen Sondheim Classic "A Little Night Music."
Sondheim's musical on romance and relationships plays at the Strand Theater in Pontiac.
You won't wanna miss this one.
And for you jazz lovers who also like to jam on Sunday, March 26th Aretha's Jazz Cafe is hosting a jazz jam starting at 7:00 PM.
All are welcome no matter what instrument you play or your experience level, come and play some music, eat some good food, have a good time.
I'm Peter Whorf with 90.9 WRCJ.
Here's more of what's happening ahead.
Hope to see you around and have a great weekend.
