VSO: Music of the Greats
Photography by: Michelle Gonzalez
On Friday, November 1, the Valley Symphony Orchestra opened its Masterworks Season with a remarkable evening at the McAllen Performing Arts Center. Featuring the celebrated pianist Juan Pablo Andrade, who joined the VSO for Addinsell’s “Warsaw Concerto,” the symphony dazzled the hall with Mozart’s “The Marriage of Figaro” and Tchaikovsky’s “Symphony No. 4.” As more than 1000 guests filled the seats, the evening marked a celebration of classical music’s timeless beauty and the VSO’s commitment to bringing the arts to the Rio Grande Valley. The Masterworks Season continues with A Touch of Frost on December 6 at the MPAC.
