February 6, 2023: Our Winter concert brings us music from a youthful Britten, a melancholy Mozart, and a renowned viola soloist.
The concert begins with the youthful exuberance of Britten’s Simple Symphony (1933.) Based on eight themes, two per movement, the music uses bits of scores he had written for piano as a teenager. Just 20 when he completed the symphony, Britten gives us a Boisterous Bourrée, a Playful Pizzicato, a Sentimental Sarabande, and a Frolicsome Finale. Prepare to be delighted! Wesley United Methodist Church, 6520 Frederica Rd., St. Simons Island. 8 P.M. Visit WEBSITE!
