“The Detroit Chamber Winds & Strings launches its newest venture April 1: 'Structurally Sound,' a concert series in architecturally significant spaces with music tied to the location. First up is the historic Ford Piquette Plant. The music ranges from Model T-era works to new pieces on a man-versus-machine theme."
