Join the Kingston Symphony as we celebrate the artistry of two of our own orchestra members, who move to the front of the stage as featured soloists. Principal Horn, Olivier Brisson, performs Strauss’s iconic Horn Concerto No. 1, Principal Clarinet, Carina Canonico, performs Mozart’s immortal Clarinet Concerto, and the rest of the orchestra showcases their virtuosity and flair in Mendelssohn’s sparkling and magical Symphony No. 4, the Italian.
