LONGMONT SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA, Jan. 30 Think classical music is “long-haired” and “stuffy”? LSO’s “Humor in Music” on Jan. 30 uncovers some composers’ lighter sides, from subtle jokes to concertos for vacuum cleaners. On May 15, the popular husband-wife duo Acoustic Eidolon joins LSO for a special performance. Other performances are listed online; all take place at 7:30pm at Vance Brand Civic Auditorium, 600 E. Mountain View Ave. in Longmont.
