The Valley Symphony Orchestra’s MUSIC OF FANTASIA concert at the McAllen Performing Arts Center featured several well-known pieces from the classic 1940 Disney animated film, including Stravinsky’s Firebird Suite and Dukas’ Sorcerer’s Apprentice. Special guest soloist, cellist Patrick Hopkins, provided an extra special treat with his incendiary performance on Tchaikovsky’s Variations on a Rococo Theme, which was met with an enormous standing ovation. The VSO was in fine form and looks forward to their last two performances of the season, including the finale, SPELLBOUND SYMPHONY, on Friday, April 19th, at the McAllen Performing Arts Center.
