Featuring Jeans ‘n Classics
Experience the groundbreaking soundscapes of one of rock’s most iconic bands reimagined with full symphonic force. The Canton Symphony Orchestra welcomes back Jeans ’n Classics for An Evening of Pink Floyd—a genre-bending fusion of classic rock and orchestral power.
From the haunting strains of Wish You Were Here to the epic sweep of Comfortably Numb and the unmistakable pulse of Another Brick in the Wall, Pink Floyd’s music has shaped generations. Known for their atmospheric textures, philosophical lyrics, and genre-defying innovation, Pink Floyd created sonic worlds that continue to resonate decades later.
Guest conductor Edward Leonard leads the orchestra alongside the rock ensemble and vocalists of Jeans ’n Classics, whose arrangements honor the original spirit of the music while elevating it to new dimensions through live symphonic performance.
Whether you’re a lifelong fan or discovering Pink Floyd for the first time, this concert promises an unforgettable night of immersive sound, stunning musicianship, and timeless music—only at the Canton Symphony Orchestra.
