The Peterborough Symphony Orchestra (PSO) is postponing its first in-person concert of 2022 by five weeks because of the pandemic.

“Wings of Sound” was originally scheduled to take place at Showplace Performance Centre on Saturday, February 5th, with performances at 2:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. The matinee and evening performances have now been rescheduled to Saturday, March 12th.

“Soloist Nadina Mackie Jackson has graciously agreed to postpone her performance with the PSO, a performance that will be the orchestra’s first time on the Showplace stage since 2019,” says PSO general manager Lee Bolton in a media release.
