Originally booked for January, these tribute artists, Ronnie Smith as Elton John and Mike Santoro as Billy Joel, play the million-selling songs that dominated the charts from the 1970s to the 1990s.
The following Saturday, April 30, the Richmond Symphony will return to close out the season. This concert will also be at 7:30 p.m. at Lancaster Middle School.
