Elmhurst Symphony Orchestra Presents “Classical Delights” March 2

Enjoy an evening of “Classical Delights” when the Elmhurst Symphony Orchestra, under the baton of Music Director and Conductor Stephen Alltop, continues its 2018-19 season with a concert featuring music of Mozart and Prokofiev on Saturday, March 2, at 7:00 p.m. Grammy-nominated violinist Jasmine Lin, internationally acclaimed as a soloist and member of the Formosa Quartet, will showcase her formidable talents in Mozart’s Concerto for Violin No. 5 in A major. Also on the program are Mozart’s masterwork, Symphony No. 41 in C major (Jupiter), regarded by many as among the greatest symphonies in classical music, and Prokofiev’s Classical Symphony, one of the composer’s most popular and well-loved works.

The Mozart symphony is underwritten by a generous gift from Tim and Carol Rounds.

The Elmhurst Symphony performs at Elmhurst Christian Reformed Church, located at 149 W. Brush Hill Rd. in Elmhurst. The church has accessible parking and facilities; parking is free. The concert experience at ECRC is enhanced by the informative and lively discussion, Behind the Music Stand, led by audience favorite Dr. Ted Hatmaker, which takes place at 5:45 p.m. prior to the concert.
