New Philharmonic and Cherish the Ladies

New Philharmonic and Music Director and Conductor Kirk Muspratt celebrate St. Patrick’s Day weekend with one of the most popular engaging ensembles in the history of Irish music, Cherish the Ladies, Saturday, March 19 at 8 p.m. and Sunday, March 20 at 3 p.m. 

The Irish-American all-female band, Cherish the Ladies, is known around the world for their traditional repertoire of Irish songs, dances and roaring humor, culminating in enormously entertaining performances.
