York Youth Symphony Orchestra and York County Senior Honors Choir present Solace, Music of Comfort and Hope
York Youth Symphony Orchestra and York County Senior Honors Choir present Solace, Music of Comfort and Hope – performed by some of the brightest and best youth musicians in York County.
The program includes powerful selections including Mozart’s Kyrie from his Grand Mass in C Minor, which is widely regarded as his most elaborate choral masterpiece; How Lovely is Thy Dwelling Place from Brahms’ Requiem; and the colorful contemporary piece Gloria by Randol Alan Bass.
In the second half, we will share our love of country with the selections Anthem from the musical Chess and the folk song Shenandoah. Always a favorite, Gershwin’s Fascinating Rhythm will have you smiling and tapping your toes. The show will conclude with Bernstein’s Make Our Garden Grow from the operetta Candide which expresses, “We’ll do the best we know.”
You will feel renewed and uplifted after this amazing performance. Please join us to experience the remarkable talent of our local youth.
