Fox Valley Philharmonic Concerto Concert
On May 3rd, at 3:00 pm, the Fox Valley Philharmonic Orchestra will present a free concert featuring a broad spectrum of virtuosic music. Three solo performances with orchestral accompaniment are featured. The Fox Valley Academy Concerto Competition Winner, sixteen-year old Clare Scheidler of Aurora will perform Vivaldi's Violin Concerto, La Stravaganza, "The Eccentric," and Competition Runner-Up, nine-year old Sofia Radovic of St. Charles, will perform Vivaldi's well-known, Concerto in A minor. Additionally, virtuosic pianist, Kevin Wong of Chicago will delight the audience with Mendelssohn's Piano Concerto No. 2. The concert will also feature the Philharmonic Winds in Joachim Raff's Sinfonietta, a work profoundly influenced by the compositional style of his 19th century contemporary, Mendelssohn.
The Philharmonic Orchestra is the Fox Valley Academy of Music Performance's community orchestra under the direction of Maryann Flock. The Academy Orchestra and Youth Strings will also perform classical works at a 1:00 pm concert.
Come experience artistic performances in the ideal environment of the St. Charles Bethlehem Lutheran Church. Admission to the concert is free; but, donations are welcomed. The church is located at 1145 N. 5th Avenue, St. Charles, just a few blocks northeast of Main Street and the Fox River, with plenty of parking available.
