A Look Inside the Repertoire of "Opening Remarks"
Allegro’s Summer Series and Season Finale is next weekend! We have an exciting selection of repertoire, an allstar soloist (Allegro’s own concertmaster, Melody Cliff), and a bit of soft symbolism. We’re closing our 2024-2025 Season with “Opening Remarks: An Evening of Overtures” ending this year’s concert series with a nod to new beginnings for Allegro. Let’s take a closer look at the pieces that you could enjoy on August 9th at Franklin & Marshall’s Barshinger Center.
