A viola duet of a work by Wilhelm Freidmann Bach performed by seniors Reasey Heng and Logan Strawn highlighted the annual fall concert by the BLS Orchestra.
The Heng-Strawn team worked well together, particular during the elegiac Lamento.
Another well-done portion of the show was the full orchestra�s performance of Franz Joseph Haydn�s Symphony No. 47 in G Major. Coming off the duet by Heng and Strawn, the orchestra gave a rousing performance of this jovial piece.
Other works performed included �Allegro Spiritoso� by Jean-Baptishe Senaille, �Folk Song and Shanty� by Richard Meyer, �American Folk Song Suite� by Arthur Frackenpohl and �Jazz Mood Suites� by Francis Feese.
Jesse L. Suggs, the conductor of the BLS Orchestra, announced the attendance at 230. A cover-dish dinner was held before the performance.
In other news, LaSaundra Lindsey participated in the State Music Convention in Winston-Salem Nov. 7-9.
The Orchestra�s next performance is the Winter Concert Dec. 1. Music from Peter Ilych Tchaikovsky�s The Nutcracker Suite will be performed. The concert will also feature the BLS Band and Chorus.
