VUCA featuring Amanda Huff & Steve Peplin livestream @ 7:30 p.m.
RockTheStream #18 features Milwaukee art collective, VUCA, with performances by Amanda Huff and Steve Peplin. Huff is a multi-genre artist defined by her ability to cleverly merge the stylings of jazz, electronic and the cinematic into something raw and unconventional. Guitarist/composer Peplin’s omnivorous musical appetite moves from Jazz to beyond.
The performance will benefit Meta House, whose vision is to help end the generational cycle of addiction by healing women and strengthening families.

UWM Symphony Orchestra opens the 2020-21 season with works by Elgar, Puccini and Mozart. Elgar’s Serenade for Strings is amongst the composer’s most popular works, which displays his mastery of string writing. UWM Symphony Orchestra’s string sections will also perform the greatest Italian opera composer, Puccini’s rare chamber music works, the elegiac Crisantemi (Chrysanthemums). The concert will end with Mozart’s Symphony No. 29 in A major, considered as most charming, polite, and faithful to the Viennese classical model.
