But McFerrin soon tapped a more serious side when he began singing and conducting the classics. And that's what he'll do in Austin. Performing under McFerrin's baton will be the UT Symphony Orchestra, one of the finest student ensembles in the country. Already the UTSO has performed in concert with violinist Itzhak Perlman and composer Marvin Hamlisch, both to rave reviews from the stars. The March 1 performance will include Bernstein's Overture to Candide, Beethoven's Symphony No. 2, Rimsky-Korsakov's Capriccio Espagnol, and an a cappella singing segment from McFerrin.
