Vallarta Orchestra Begins New Season on a High Note Shannon MacLachlan - PVNN
| The Puerto Vallarta Chamber Orchestra, a non-profit organization comprised of 10-15 musicians who share the love of performing music, began the new season on a high note last Friday at the Los Mangos Library's 10th anniversary celebration. |
The Puerto Vallarta Chamber Orchestra helped celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Los Mangos Library on Friday night by performing a number of pieces by Bach, Handel, Mozart and Holst among others. The orchestra is a non-profit organization comprised of 10-15 musicians who share the love of performing music and playing together.
Often the Chamber Orchestra concerts include more than full-ensemble pieces, and Friday's concert was no exception. A trio comprised of Sharon Baughman-White on piano, d'Rachael on flute and Kathy Overly singing soprano did an exquisite performance of Schubert's "Shepherd on a Rock."
The orchestra's Christmas concert will be held at the Cultural Centre on the Isla Rio Cuale on December 17th at 7:30 pm. Entry is by donation. This concert will include various instrumental and vocal performances, as well as audience-participation in carol singing. Don't miss out on what will prove to be a very special evening - all are welcome!
The musicians rehearse once a week under the leadership of Mary MacLachlan, and are always looking for more musicians. If you are interested in joining the Puerto Vallarta Chamber Orchestra, please call Mary at 222-7241 for more information. |
