Next Wednesday evening marks the beginning of one of my favorite summer traditions—Madison’s Concert on the Square series. This summer’s season, the 25th anniversary, features performances by the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra at 7pm on six consecutive Wednesday evenings.
In preparation, I have already purchased a bottle of the “official” wine of the series, Wollerheim’s Prairie Fume, which also happens to be my favorite. For the first time, I will also be breaking out the mini table that my parents bought me last year for my birthday. However, I’m still searching for mini chairs to go along with it.
Below are the dates and themes of each concert. I cannot wait until next Wednesday. Until then, I’ll be recruiting friends and putting together the perfect picnic menu.
