The Knoxville Symphony Chamber Orchestra will present a program with an "Italian" theme this Sunday afternoon, March 3rd at 2:30pm. As usual, the performance will be given in the historic Bijou Theatre in downtown Knoxville. The chamber orchestra will be led by guest conductor, Michelle Di Russo, who is currently Associate Conductor with the North Carolina Symphony and is a 2023 Dudamel Fellow with the LA Philharmonic. A native of Argentina with Italian roots, this program reflects Di Russo's culture.
The program will include Mendelssohn's "Italian" Symphony, Rossini's Overture to The Italian in Algiers, Aldemaro Romero's "Fuga con Pajarillo" and Vivaldi's Concerto for Two Cellos, which will feature KSO cellists, Sarah Senn and Adam Ayers as soloists.
