The Woodlands Symphony presents a magical concert experience tonight at 6:30 p.m. at The Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion with Once Upon a Symphony.’ This show is a celebration of the fantastic fiction that lifts our spirits and makes us feel like we can fly, and the music that amplifies that feeling. Travel to far-away lands as the symphony leads you on a journey you’ll never forget. Fight dragons, find friends, experience wonder – and then come home to tell the tale around a warm fire.
