The University Orchestra, with conductor Susan Deaver, will present the annual Family Orchestra Concert on Tuesday, March 10, at Staller Center for the Arts at 7:30 pm. This one-hour interactive concert is an annual favorite of the Stony Brook community and their families.
This year’s theme — “Music from Broadway & Opera” — features music that captivates listeners of all ages with a wide variety of orchestral sounds of the strings, woodwinds, brass and percussion in a kaleidoscope of rhythms along with musical elements of dynamics, driving and smooth tempos and moods. Featured music will include opera music by Rameau and Bizet’s Carmen along with Broadway highlights from Phantom of the Opera, Wicked and West Side Story. Joining the University Orchestra is Wanmei Zhang, mezzo-soprano, who will perform in arias from Bizet’s well-known opera Carmen.
Admission is free. For more information, contact Staller Center at (631) 632-ARTS.
