The Starkville/Mississippi State University Symphony Association sponsored a series of concerts for children Friday at First Baptist Church in Starkville. The 60-piece Starkville Symphony Orchestra played music reflective of famous Mississippi musicians and the state's history, including a suite of Elvis songs, as well as a country/bluegrass-style "Orange Blossom Special" in honor of "The Father of Country Music," Jimmie Rodgers.
