West Philadelphia Orchestra Providing Balkan Grooves for All at Penn Museum Aug. 21

At this year’s 2nd Street Festival, you could see that West Philadelphia Orchestra is continuing to build an eclectic fan base. Whether you’re hippie-ish Deadhead, affluent yuppie, or even a young child just learning the freedoms of standing on your own two feet, it’s hard to resist dancing to their infectious Balkan grooves. If you don’t believe me, come see for yourself this evening at Penn Museum. And if you can’t make it tonight, you also have another free opportunity this Saturday at Liberty Lands Park when they join a fine bill of locals acts for Rock to the Future’s Rally for Rock: Benefit for Music Education. Penn Museum, 3260 South St., 5pm – 8pm, Free, All Ages – H.M. Kauffman
