The Hopkins Symphony Orchestra will be holding the third and final performance of its Chamber Orchestra Series this season on Sunday, April 4.
The program contains several well-known pieces such as excerpts from Dvorak's 9th (New World) Symphony, and the Triumphal March from Verdi's "Aida" which will be performed by the JHU Flute Choir.
The program also includes Gabriel Faur??'s "Quartet No. 2 for Piano and Strings in G Minor, Opus 45," Edouard Lalo's "Symphony Espagnole," Mozart's "Quintet for Piano and Winds in E-flat Major," and Francis Poulenc's "Suite Francaise." Julien Benichou will conduct the concert.
For anyone who has never been to a chamber music performance, this is not one to be missed. The small size of chamber music ensembles gives chamber performances an intimacy, and this show promises, with its lineup of pieces, to be especially exciting.
The concert will be held in the SDS room in the Mattin Center. General admission is $8, but the program is free to all Hopkins students with ID.
