Senior Suburban Orchestra

The concert will feature the music of Gustav Holst including the March from A Moorside Suite, Dance of Spirits of Water from The Perfect Fool and Jupiter from The Planets. The program also includes the Forest Gump Suite commemorating the 30th anniversary of the film as well as Greater Loesser, a sing-along including a collection of singer/songwriter Frank Loesser’s songs arranged by orchestra member Ron Baumgardner

The Orchestra’s conductor, Dan Pasquale D’Andrea, has been with the orchestra since its beginning in 2000, and has helped develop the orchestra into an award-winning 40+ piece performing organization, which presents up to 15 concerts per year for venues such as retirement homes, schools, and community organizations.

Although there is no charge for the concert, donations are appreciated.
