The Maple City Community Orchestra invites you to our first concert of the 2025-2026 season on Sunday, October 19 at 4:00pm in the Sauder Concert Hall at Goshen College!
Titled “Across the Centuries”, this concert presents music from 1791 (Overture to Mozart’s opera “The Magic Flute”), 1809 (“Andante e Rondo ungarese” by Carl Maria von Weber), 1919 (“El sombrero de tres picos” or “The Three Cornered Hat” suite by Spanish/Argentinian composer Manuel de Falla), and 2013 (“Loco-motion” by Stella Sung).
We are delighted to welcome Dr. Jaehyuk Choi as our guest soloist in von Weber’s “Andante e Rondo ungarese”. An award-winning violist, Dr. Choi has studied at Hanyang University in South Korea, the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music, the Eastman School of Music, and the University of Cincinnati where he earned a Doctor of Musical Arts in Viola Performance.
