Greetings, neighbors!

Welcome to the KSO’s 27th Summer Series of expanded freeconcerts in the Parks. It is a thrill to return to Covington’s Devou Park on Saturday evenings and Fort Thomas’ Tower Park on Sunday nights for unique, nostalgic, family programs. Tonight we are trying something new — printed programs via your phone and Audience Access, which will allow you to learn more about the KSO, our performers, sponsors etc. (no app required). It will also allow you to make a secure donation and keep tabs on upcoming shows.

The three programs this summer are all quite different, yet dabble in a wide variety of big band jazz, comedy and vocal harmony spanning nearly a century. Thank you to the Cities of Covington and Fort Thomas for inviting the KSO back to engage the community with great music, while creating fond memories.
