Saturday, November 8th, 2014
7:30 PM to 9:30 PM

Imagine yourself to be in an 18th century concert hall in the presence of George Frederic Handel, or at an emotional commemoration of the tragedy at the 1972 Munich Olympics.  For "Peace and Pleasure", the Nanaimo Chamber Orchestra will take you to places of the heart with Handel's Baroque Concerto Grosso VI and John Williams' modern A Prayer for Peace. As well, the program includes the evocative Impromptu by Jean Sibelius, Max Reger's chromatic Weihnachten (Christmas), and American composer, Arthur Foote's early 20th century, light classical Suite in E Major. 


The NCO is pleased, also, to feature bassoonist, Katrina Russell, to play Johann Neruda's Concerto in C Major for Bassoon.  Katrina is a member of the Victoria Baroque Players who have played several times in Nanaimo.  Under the direction of violinist, Karl Rainer, the NCO continues to evolve, mature and present great music to Nanaimo audiences.
