Happy New Year one and all! Mary is honored to return to Fort Myers to perform with multi-talented maestro Andrew Lipke and the Southwest Florida Symphony Orchestra for the "You've Got Mail!: Musical Love Letters" concert series on February 14th and 15th, 2025.
This unique Valentine's Day-themed concert series will feature classic love songs from both past and present -- everything from The Beatles to Broadway -- in brand new orchestral arrangements created by Andrew and Mary especially for "You've Got Mail!".
The program will also feature several original works by both composers; including the orchestral premiere of Mary Bichner's "White Lilies" as well as orchestral premieres for Andrew Lipke's "Stick By You", "Baby, I'm Sorry", and "Bright as Any Diamond".
The February 14th edition of concert will take place at the Barbara B. Mann Performing Arts Hall in Fort Myers, Florida, USA at 7:30PM; and the February 15th edition will take place at the Charlotte Performing Arts Center in Punta Gorda, Florida, USA at 7:00PM. Tickets range from $25.00-$115.00 for this all-ages concert series, and can be reserved via the SWFLSO ticket page:
Thank you so much to Andrew Lipke and the Southwest Florida Symphony Orchestra for inviting Mary to perform, and looking forward to seeing everyone at "You've Got Mail!"!
