Berlioz, Bizet, and More in Pasadena Community Orchestra's Free Concert!
Enjoy the "Symphonie Fantastique," Bizet's sublime "Intermezzo" from "L'Arlesienne," and the famous "Light Cavalry Overture" by von Suppe.
Pasadena Community Orchestra’s 33rd season of free, high-quality classical concerts opens with a concert full of audience favorites. The orchestra, led by Music Director Bethany Pflueger, presents the highly dramatic, almost bipolar Symphonie Fantastique of Hector Berlioz anchors the November 13th concert by Pasadena Community Orchestra. There’s love, a pastoral country scene and a ball; but then a delightfully snarky march to the scaffold and witches’ dance – it has it all! Also on the concert is Franz von Suppé’s rollicking Light Cavalry Overture: you’ll want to salute the bold fanfares, and you’ll feel the horses cantering! Rounding out the evening is the hauntingly beautiful Intermezzo from Bizet’s popular L’Arlesienne Suite. Audience members may meet the musicians at a reception following the concert. Friday, November 13, 8:00 p.m. at First Church of the Nazarene, 3700 E. Sierra Madre Blvd., Pasadena. Admission is free, and no reservations are necessary.
