The Louisiana Philharmonic Orchestra, in partnership with The National WWII Museum, will present a Veterans Day evening concert honoring those who have served in the United States Armed Forces. “Honoring our Heroes,” presented by Morgan Stanley, features the world premiere of “Dreams of the Fallen” a compelling new composition for piano, chorus and orchestra by award-winning composer Jake Runestad. "Dreams of the Fallen" features pianist Jeffrey Biegel and Symphony Chorus of New Orleans.

John Goodman, star of the upcoming films, "The Monuments Men" and "Inside Llewyn Davis," will narrate for the performance of Aaron Copland's "Lincoln Portrait."
