American Rhapsody: A Fourth of July Celebration in Sound A summer favorite, reimagined for an even more family-friendly experience, this year's patriotic pops is an hour-long celebration designed for audiences of all ages. This late-morning concert captures the excitement of fireworks and recreates it onstage through music that sparkles and soars. From Sousa marches to Superman, from "America the Beautiful" to "Armed Forces Medley" honoring those who have served and continue to serve, the Missouri Symphony invites you to share in a morning of music that honors legacy while embracing the present — a shared civic moment in the heart of Mid-Missouri.
