The music of Georgia will receive a special celebration next month – and Chuck Leavell, Gregg Allman, Randall Bramblett and others will be on hand for the honors.

At 8 p.m. January 18, “Celebrating Georgia with Chuck Leavell and Friends” will be presented at Atlanta Symphony Hall at the Woodruff Arts Center.

The performance is affiliated with the Georgia Roots Music Festival, the one-day event celebrating Georgia’s extensive musical heritage that takes place from noon-6:30 p.m. the same day at the Woodruff.

For the evening concert, Leavell, known for his work with the Allman Brothers Band and The Rolling Stones among many others, will be joined by Allman, Bramblett, Jimmy Hall, Robert McDuffie and the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Jacomo Bairos. The performance will pay homage to Georgia native Otis Redding.

Tickets for the musical celebration are $29-$89.50 and are on sale at 10 a.m. December 13. They can be purchased through all Ticketmaster outlets and www.ticketmaster.com, as well as www.atlantasymphony.org, at the Woodruff box office or by calling 404-733-5000.
