A stroll through the forest engages our senses, but we usually focus on the lush sights. The Akron Symphony Orchestra, however, is sending the sounds of nature to your ears. Featuring Akron’s own Josh Quillen and the So- Percussion, this concert combines an array of sounds from sticks breaking to birds chirping. The pros get some assistance from audience members who will stream recorded bird sounds from their cellphones during the performance. “The show is all about human contemplation of nature,” says Christopher Wilkins, music director and conductor. “It should be fun.”
