Join us tomorrow at 7:30 PM for “Passion”. You don't want to miss this one.

The concert starts with Waves of Celebration by our music director Russell Vinick followed by fan-favorite clarinetist Ember Miller in Mozart's beloved Clarinet Concerto. The evening culminates with Tchaikovsky's Symphony No. 6 – an emotional tour de force that moves from lush orchestral beauty through a frantic march to its achingly somber conclusion.
