Bach, Beijing, and Beethoven ~Sunday, October 5, 2008

The summer Olympics in China gives flavor our first concert with a performance of the Bach Double Violin Concerto played on conventional violin and Chinese version, the Erhu. Our own Ioana Galu will be joined by Beijing trained Ehru player, Xiao Dong Wei in an east-west rendition of this Bach favorite. The concert finishes with the exuberant and sophisticated Eighth Symphony of Beethoven.

Pirates ~Sunday, November 9, 2008

Arrrrghhh! Me buckos! The SGLS takes to the sea with this salute to pirates. Two scores from the movies and one from the stage will have you looking for your parrot and blunderbuss. Joining the orchestra will be the Erie Chamber choir and soloists for excerpts from the Gilbert and Sullivan smash hit, The Pirates of Penzance. Pieces of eight not accepted.
