BALTIMORE (WJZ) -- The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra announced Wednesday the details of its upcoming 2020-21 season, which celebrates Marin Alsop in her final season as Music Director.
The BSO said that Alsop has planned a season that highlights some of her greatest musical passions in her final season.
