Our fourth concert of the Season features music from Great Britain. The ethereal sounds of the Vaughan-Williams Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis will cover you in a blanket of caressing strings. Then Britten’s Serenade for Tenor, Horn and Strings cannot be surpassed for its sheer beauty. Tenor, Todd Queen, and our own Jason Johnston on horn, exemplify our high caliber of local talent. Finally, the Enigma Variations by Edward Elgar will hold you spellbound.
This entire performance will be repeated, 2 p.m., March 18, 2012 at the Roberta Price Auditorium, Thompson Valley High School in Loveland.

Wes and the Symphony musicians are back! Back at the Lincoln Center, of course. Ahh, the anticipation of a newly renovated Lincoln Center with improved facilities and new accoutrements. We also return to two other locations- the Timberline Church for two concerts - the Youth Education Series Family Concert and the Tribute to John Williams Pops Concert.
Also, the City of Loveland welcomes us back where we will continue to play for a new audience who is just discovering the awesome sound of the Symphony.
