Romance served up with elegant evening

Enjoy some of the world’s most beloved romantic ballads in two performances of “So in Love,” an elegant evening of music featuring the Glacier Symphony and Chorale’s Glacier Chamber Singers and The Great Pretenders on Friday, Feb. 8, and Saturday, Feb. 9, in Kalispell.

Doors will open at 7 p.m. for the shows that will be staged in the intimate setting of the Alpine Ballroom, upstairs at 333 S. Main in Kalispell. The singers will dress in tuxedos and an array of formal gowns. Patrons are invited to dress formally as well to celebrate Valentine’s Day.
