Bainbridge Symphony Launches Season with BEETHOVEN'S CONCERTO NO. 4 Tonight by BWW News Desk
- November 14, 2015 The appearance of fall usually brings to me both the feeling of nostalgia as well as great expectation. During the summer I have the pleasure of traveling and making music with musicians I don't normally see during the season. In summers past I've conducted pops concerts on the great outdoor stage of the Britt Classical Festival, led the Bohuslav Martin? Philharmonic Orchestra in Zlin, Czech Republic, and this past August worked with wonderful young musicians at Seattle's own Vivace! Chamber Music Camp. I leave these summer endeavors behind with reluctance, but at the same time I turn toward all of the magical concerts ahead that will fill the stage at Bainbridge Performing Arts. We have great music in store for you this season starting with our November 14 & 15 performances.
