Sunday Chamber Music: Gulf Coast Symphony Orchestral Fellows

Join us for a mesmerizing evening of soloistic brilliance as the Gulf Coast Symphony Orchestral Fellows take center stage at the Music & Arts Community Center in Fort Myers. They will be joined by our concertmaster Reiko Niiya and a couple other Gulf Coast Symphony members.  Be transported to a world of musical enchantment, as these talented young musicians deliver performances that will leave you spellbound.  Gulf Coast Symphony Orchestra Fellows are chosen after competitive national auditions to serve as principal players in the Gulf Coast Symphony this season.  In addition to performing in the orchestra, they have been involved in community engagement and educational activities throughout our region. This concert is a culmination of their work this season, and a musical celebration of their talents.  Come Sunday and witness the bright future of classical music in our region!
