ANOTHER SYMPHONY ON THE MOUNTAIN Sunday 28th March at 2pm
The Cleveland Symphony Orchestra (CSO) returns to the Mountain after an absence of seven years, with a concert of light classics. This will be the first in the series of four Sunday concerts scheduled for 2010.
The all inclusive door charge is $20.00, (pension card $15.00), with a concesssional family charge of just $40.00 for parents with children. Youngsters are very welcome.
The Mt Mee Hall has a limited capacity, and booking is essential. Phone Kay, (5498 2104), Anne (5498 2178) or Joyce (5498 2270)
This concert is a non-profit community event organised by the Mt Mee Public Hall Inc.
The CSO last performed at Mt Mee in 2003.
Formed some 24 years ago, the CSO is made up of about fifty dedicated musicians. They come from a variety of walks of life, but they share a common interest – working together to produce quality music. Under the tutelage of conductor Phillip Taylor, they have become one of the most accomplished and highly respected musical forces in S.E Qld.
Phillip is a born and bred Brisbane lad – educated at Padua College. He studied violin and viola in Brisbane and at the Tasmanian Conservatorium under Professor Jan Sedigka and went on to work with the Tasmanian, Melbourne and Queensland Symphony Orchestras and with various opera and ballet orchestras. He has conducted youth orchestras in several states and has a keen interest in nurturing young musicians. Phillip still enjoys performing as violist with chamber music groups and has been the incumbent conductor of the CSO for ‘some years’.
The programme for our Symphony on the Mountain, on 28th March, will be light and varied. We will hear some old favourites – the ‘Blue Danube’ and the ‘Champagne Polka’ from the Strauss book, the awesome ‘Thunder and Lightning’ by Tchaikovsky together with his Eugene and Onegin Polonaise, that wonderful ‘Masquerade Waltz’ by the unspellable Kachaturian, and Binge’s ‘Elizabethan Serenade’. There will be the inevitable showtime selection – featuring West Side Story – and there will be plenty more!
The atmosphere is informal and the focus is on enjoyment and fun.
As usual, the concert will consist of two sessions of about 45 minutes separated by the legendary Mt Mee interval – when the audience mingles with the performers to share a complimentary country style afternoon tea on the lawn.
