    In honor of the close of the One Book, One Philadelphia program, the Black Pearl Orchestra plays Copland's Variations on a Shaker Melody and Beethoven's Sixth, mentioned on page 40 of The Soloist. The concert is followed by a discussion of homelessness in Philadelphia with Sister Mary Scullion of Project H.O.M.E. and author Steve Lopez. While this event is free and open to the public, donations of children's books for the Free Library of Philadelphia and items recommended from the Project H.O.M.E. client wish-list are strongly encouraged.
