Summertime in Madison is always such a treat, so City Cast Madison wants to maximize our time outdoors by enjoying live music at this year’s Concerts on the Square series on the Capitol Square. This free weekly summer concert series, which kicks off this Wednesday, is organized by the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra and has been a staple Madison tradition since 1983. Host Bianca Martin sits down with Music Director of the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra Andrew Sewell to learn more about the programming, best practices, and impact of these concerts for music lovers. Sewell also shares about his most stressful and most memorable concert moment as he celebrates his 25th season as conductor of the Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra.
