Tu 2/27 7:00 pm Orchestra Concert, Turner Chapel
When we think of great composers we often think of “the three B’s” Bach, Beethoven, Brahms. Tonight, however, the NGU symphony will perform works by two of these composers with another great composer whose name also begins with B, Bizet. The program will begin with Bizet’s L’Arlesienne Suite No. 2, from his opera The Girl from Arles. Next is Beethoven’s Symphony No. 4.
Tu 4/17 7:00 pm Orchestra, Choir, and String Ensemble, Turner Chapel
This evening the NGU String Ensemble will perform two works, Gustav Holst’s Brook Green Suite and Edvard Grieg’s Holberg Suite. Holst wrote his suite for his students at St. Paul’s Girl’s School in 1933 desiring to provide them with a piece in a contemporary mature style that was not a “watered down” version of a classic. Both works are readily accessible by the average audience and are performed regularly.
