Experience the world of the silver screen through a Golden Isles Youth Orchestra recital of popular movie melodies in the opulent setting of the Mizner Ballroom at The Cloister on Sea Island on Sunday, November 11. The concert will take place 5:00 p.m. with a cocktail reception beginning at 4:00 p.m. Pianist Christopher Smith will entertain guests at the reception.
The recital will feature the full orchestra playing themes from Showboat, The Magnificent Seven, The Way We Were and other movie classics. The program supports two important summer music experiences for local musicians, one for high school students that takes place at the College of Coastal Georgia and one for younger students that takes place at Frederica Academy. Last summer nearly 100 young people took part in a week-long CCGA Summer Music Camp at the College of Coastal Georgia and another 100 at the Frederica camp. Taught by 20 professional musicians, students had intensive daily private lessons, ensemble coaching, section practice and full orchestra rehearsal. All proceeds from the November recital will be used strictly to fund next year's summer music camps.
