Etobicoke Philharmonic Orchestra / Etobicoke Youth Strings

2007-2008 MEMBER PROFILES
 

With an esteemed 40-year history of fine community programming, the Etobicoke Philharmonic Orchestra will present a four-concert series of “Symphonic Sensations” under the dynamic leadership of new Music Director Roberto De Clara. Great symphonies, wonderful shorter works, gifted guest artists and exceptional in-house talent promise to delight and inspire. “Opening Night” in October sets the celebratory tone for this season with Mozart’s Concerto for Flute and Harp and Dvorak’s New World Symphony #9. Then the trumpets shall sound in December with “Comfort and Joy” featuring Haydn’s Trumpet Concerto. “Ritmo Mediterraneo” conjures a February getaway to the Mediterrranean with the Warren Nicholson Guitar Quartet and works by Rodrigo and Rossini. “Romancing the Classics” in April features the most passionate of music by Verdi and Tchaikovsky. Four sensational programs - hear it all, here with EPO!
 
EPO is also keeping the young at art through the Etobicoke Youth Strings, providing a unique experience for highly motivated string players aged 10 to 18 to rehearse and perform as an ensemble, and to shine individually with solo work, conducting and composing opportunities.
