Londontowne Symphony Orchestra Tunes Up Season

The group will kick off its 11th year in Edgewater with a Sept. 27 concert about water.

The Londontowne Symphony Orchestra opens its 11th season with music about water with the Anchors Aweigh concert at Historic London Town and Gardens in Edgewater on Sept. 27 at 3 p.m., according to a news release

The concert includes Grofe’s Mississippi Suite, Smetana’s The Moldau, Rodger’s Victory at Sea and Gliere’s Russian Sailor’s Dance. The orchestra will also premiere an original work by local composer Greg Pascuzzi, titled Variations On The Navy Hymn. The highlight of the afternoon concert will come with Bach’s Concerto for Violin and Oboe, with the solo parts played by the orchestra’s own couple, Donna and Kerry Willingham.

The LSO’s season will continue in late October with the orchestra’s third annual Halloween concert, Spooky Sounds, Haunted Harmonies, to be performed at South River High School at 7 p.m. on Oct. 24. Along with haunting music, this spooky show will also feature the orchestra’s traditional costume contest for adults and children.
