# 1 - ELEGANT EVENING AT THE CSO + BACKSTAGE MEET & GREET
Your elegant affair will begin as a limo picks up your party of six and whisks you downtown on the evening of June 1st .
You ’ ll begin with dinner at the exclusive Metropolitan Club on the 67th floor of the Willis Tower while enjoying spectacular views , the finest food , libations and personal service . Afterwards , ride the VIP express elevator up to the 103rd floor Skydeck . Avoid the lines and step out onto the fully enclosed , glass Ledge , if you dare !
Next , your limo will be waiting outside for your group as you head to Symphony Center where you will enjoy premium box seats for the night ’ s entertainment . Delight in the sounds of the orchestral suite for Strauss ’ Der Rosenkavalier . The music tells a story of love and passion , vividly portrayed by whooping horns , a duet between lovers ( oboe and horn ), and a series of waltz ’ s , each more robust than the next .
After the concert , your group will be the envy of all others as you head backstage for a private meet-and-greet with select performers from the CSO , before you are chauffeured home in style .
