2009-10 Classical Concert Series Announced
Classic Concert Series

The Celebration Foundation is pleased to announce the schedule for the eighth Annual Celebration Classical Concert Series. Last year we featured two new organizations; The Florida Symphony Youth Orchestra and The Central Florida Brass Band, and because the reaction was so positive and because we almost sold-out both concerts, we have decided to bring them both back this year. The opening Brass Band Holiday Concert is quickly becoming a Celebration holiday season tradition. In place of the Orlando Opera, we will be seeing the Bach Festival Choir and Orchestra again after a three-year absence. And for the eighth consecutive year, the Orlando Philharmonic will be performing here. This will mark their 14th concert in Celebration.


This is the eighth year for the Foundation’s Classical Concert Series. The goal of the Series is to present the highest quality community classical concert series in Florida. The Series hopes to accomplish that by partnering with the best classical music organizations in Central Florida.

We are able to attract these outstanding organizations due to the generous financial support of businesses and individuals in Celebration, and due to the continued support of Community Presbyterian Church in Celebration.

The response to the Concert Series has been almost universally positive. The Four Corners Reporter in a review of last year’s Orlando Philharmonic Mozart concert raved “ I believe this was a fantastic concert. The conducting, soloists, ensemble, and venue all came together to make something really satisfying”. David Schillhammer, executive director of the Orlando Philharmonic, said at 2007’s sold-out Handel’s Messiah concert that “we only permit Orange TV to film and record concerts here in Celebration due to the church’s superior acoustics”.

Provided below is the schedule for this year’s Series:

December 6, 7:00 pm Brass Band of Central Florida “Annual Holiday Concert”
   
January 30, 7:30 pm Bach Festival Choir & Orchestra “75th Season Preview”
   
February 13, 7:30 pm Orlando Philharmonic “String Romance”
   
March 7, 4:00 pm Florida Symphony Youth Orchestra
