7:30pm, Sunday, February 21st. 2010. First Baptist Church, free to the public.
Come see the Junior MYO show their versatility as they rock out on a great blues number and joyously perform Haydn’s “Toy Symphony”.
The Senior MYO will take you through a range of emotions from the beautiful slow movement of Mendelssohn’s “4th Symphony”, the raucous “Roman Carnival Overture” by Berlioz, and the death defying “Night on Bald Mountain”, and a special piece by our own Stefan Melnyk.
This concert will feature a pre and post-concert art show featuring other creative talents that our students have beyond music. Please join us in the FBC lobby to appreciate their works.
April 18th, 7pm, Hickman High School
