Allegro's 2011 Season - our Gala 10th!
Ten years ago, a group of area musicians, led by Dr. Brian Norcross, undertook a bold venture: to create a genuine chamber orchestra comprised of local musicians, and dedicated to bringing the finest music for small orchestra to the region. Now, ten years later, Allegro stands tall as a much-beloved summer tradition!
For our Gala Tenth season in 2011, we've decided to celebrate in two significant ways. First, we decided to invite several favorite soloists from prior seasons to return, and second, we decided to commission three brand-new pieces of music, to have a World Premiere at each of our three concert weekends! Two of the composers, Arlen Clarke and Ralph Lehman, have previously premiered works with Allegro; the third, Rossano Galante, is a well-known composer based in California.
2011 promises to be our best season ever! We hope to see you all at every concert!

2011 individual and season tickets are available now via our tickets page. As always, we perform on the second Saturday of each summer month, June - August, at 2:00 pm and 7:30 pm. Allegro offers a wonderful benefit for our youngest friends: audience members aged 5 to 16 can attend free with a paid adult! What a wonderful way to introduce a new generation to classical music. Be sure to bring all your friends (young and old) to Allegro's Tenth Season in summer 2011 - performing in the lovely Barshinger Center for Musical Arts on the campus of Franklin and Marshall College!
