NOTE: as the event is traditionally a hard ticketed event and utilized as a fund raiser for the Illinois Philharmonic Orchestra (which focuses heavily on Education and youth musician efforts), we hope you will enjoy these performances and consider making a donation to support future Rising Star Showcases.
