Squeeze In A Free Concert Today At The Library
By Arlene Miller, Friends of the Pennsauken Free Public Library
The Westmont Philharmonia Accordion Orchestra (WPAO) is performing a free concert on Saturday, March 10, from 11:00 a.m. to noon in the Community Room.
WPAO is a classical symphonic orchestra made up of 10 highly-accomplished accordionists. With Stanley Darrow as its principal conductor, WPAO features virtuoso artists and guest conductors from around the world, and its concerts have been enjoyed throughout New Jersey and the United States and Europe. The harmonies and musical expertise of the members combine to create a chamber ensemble experience.
The orchestra’s diverse repertoire ranges from classical to contemporary, and their March 10 performance will take the audience on a worldwide tour by representing regions of Europe and Asia that include pieces such as “Irish Suite – Reel and Jig” by Seiber; “Hungarian Dance #5 & #6” by Brahms; “The Italian in Algeria” by Rossini; “In the Mountains of Central Asia” by Borodin; “Santander” by Leutwiler; and “Kalif of Bagdad” by Boieldieu. The concert will end with a spirited performance of “Latina” by Bencriscutto, a composition originally written for a marching band.
So come out and prepare to be spellbound!
