Chamber Orchestra to bring Mendelssohn, Bartok, Mozart to de Jong Concert Hall

The Brigham Young University Chamber Orchestra will perform Thursday, March 21, at 7:30 p.m. in the de Jong Concert Hall.

Tickets are available at the Fine Arts ticket window or by going online to byuarts.com/tickets. Tickets are $10 or $6 with a student ID. The event is also part of the artsPASS ticket package.

The orchestra, under the direction of Kory Katseanes, will present the Overture to “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” by Felix Mendelssohn-Bartholdy, “Music for Strings, Percussion and Celesta” by Bela Bartok and Symphony No. 38 in D Major by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

The Chamber Orchestra regularly tours in the United States and Canada and has performed in The People’s Republic of China, Taiwan and throughout Europe. The quality of its players and the diversity of its repertoire have earned the Chamber Orchestra the highest recommendation rating from the National Endowment for the Arts, as well as a recording contract with Pyramid Records of Paris France.
