We’re presenting our spring concert this Saturday evening! This one really crept up on me, because I had to take a month off from cello and orchestra for several reasons. But suddenly, it’s concert time!

This concert’s theme is Musical Gems:

Mother Goose Suite – Ravel
S̩r̩nade Op 7 РR. Strauss
Concerto grosso op. 6 no. 1 – Handel
Symphony no. 40 in G minor – Mozart

It is also dedicated to George, the eldest member of our cello section, who passed away two weeks ago. He was one of the original founding members of the orchestra, and a fascinating, philosophical man with a very dry sense of humour. He will be missed.

The concert is taking place at 7:30 PM on Saturday 29 March 2014 at Valois United, our orchestra’s home, which is at 70 Belmont Ave (corner King) in Pointe-Claire. Admission is $10, free for children 18 and under. The concerts usually last just about two hours, including the refreshment break. There is a map as well as public transport info on the church website. Children of all ages are always very welcome.
