Andrés Orozco-Estrada Makes Debut At Houston Baptist University's Cultural Arts Center
Music Director Andrés Orozco-Estrada will step onto the conductor's podium at Houston Baptist University's Joella & Stewart Morris Cultural Arts Center for the first time since being appointed music director. The one-night-only performance featuring violin showpieces and romantic masterworks by Russian composer Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky will take place at 7:30 p.m. Oct. 21.
