National Symphony Orchestra Capitol Concerts Series

A. Project Goals ¿ The Memorial Day and Independence Day concerts are shared to a broad audience through a live performance, a public service broadcast on T.V., and streamed world-wide to members of the U.S. military. The high profile nature of the performance on historic property increases public awareness, knowledge, and support for historic preservation and stewardship of the nation's natural, cultural, and historical heritage. B. Project Objectives ¿ The objective of this Agreement is to sponsor annually a series of no more than four National Symphony Orchestra concerts upon the United States Capitol Grounds, free to the public, in accordance with the conditions provided by the Architect of the Capitol. The NPS is permitted by H.R. Con. Res 133, 97th Cong., 95 Stat. 1760 (1981).
