Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served, creating an atmosphere for conversation and engagement.
Each finalist will also perform a brief solo mini-recital during the event, giving attendees a preview of their musical abilities and a taste of the artistry they will bring to the competition.
“The Preview Evening provides a wonderful opportunity to meet the finalists and hear them perform in a more intimate setting,” said Jeffrey Parker, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra. “It’s a chance for the community to learn more about the competition and engage with these talented young musicians before the final round.” Tickets for this event are $75.00 and available online.
The ELICC is one of the region’s top music competitions, offering young musicians the chance to perform with a professional orchestra.
