    Great American songs would be nothing without the iconic artists who perform them. This series of concerts pays tribute to some of these American Icons. On June 14 and 15, the Pops celebrates the music of Benny Goodman with Pops principal clarinetist Thomas Martin, and also Louis Armstrong with spectacular trumpeter and vocalis Byron Stripling.
