Ensemble Out 'On a Wire' with Virtuosic Concerto

What’s perhaps the most popular opera in America is performed this weekend in Lexington.  And tonight, a group that’s giving classical music a younger face entertains an audience at the Singletary Center.  With a preview of both events is Rich Copley, who covers culture for the Lexington Herald Leader.
