Mozart and More in March
Ridgefield Symphony Orchestra Performs "Classical Contemporaries" in Wilton

Fresh on the heels of a bravura performance on February 13th that elicited comments from reviewers such as... “powerful interpretations… near perfection… a splendid concert…” the Ridgefield Symphony Orchestra again takes the stage on Saturday, March 5th, 8:00 pm, at Wilton High School’s Clune Auditorium for CLASSICAL CONTEMPORARIES.
The concert is named for two titans of music in the 1700’s: Mozart and Haydn. They were colleagues, they were friends, and they even made music together in a string quartet! The RSO’s March performance features a pair of symphonies from the masters. Mozart’s Symphony #35, named the “Haffner,” is universally recognized as being among Mozart’s finest works. And composed at almost the same time, Haydn’s Symphony #67 is the model of classical grace, full of spirit and vigor!
Along with the two symphonies, the performance features a concerto for a pair of instruments rarely heard in a solo capacity: the horn! Georg Philipp Telemann’s Concerto for Two Horns features RSO Principal Hornist Sara Della Posta and fellow virtuoso Robert Hoyle as soloists.
