The Ohio Northern University Symphony presents "Springtime Voyage," a tour of American music, in the Freed Center for the Performing Arts on Saturday, May 10, at 8 p.m.

Conductor Lloyd Butler will guide the Symphony through a night of breathtaking symphonic music. The Symphony will be joined by the winners of the 2007-2008 Midwest Young Artists Concerto Competition.
