Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra Celebrates Rimma Bergeron-Langlois' 10-Year Anniversary With the Philharmonic

The Orlando Philharmonic Orchestra will celebrate Concertmaster Rimma Bergeron-Langlois's 10-year anniversary with the Philharmonic at Rimma Plays Prokofiev on Saturday, November 7 at 7:30 p.m. This concert, part of the FAIRWINDS Classics Series, will take place at Calvary Orlando in Winter Park- the location of the previous FAIRWINDS Classics Series concert, Dvořák's Seventh. Calvary Orlando has been chosen as a concert site because of its large seating capacity and stage, allowing for proper social distancing for both the audience and the Philharmonic's musicians.

The evening's program will include the following selections:
Andrew Norman - The Great Swiftness
Serge Prokofiev - Violin Concerto No. 2
ROQUE CORDERO - Eight Miniatures for Small Orchestra
Serge Prokofiev - Symphony No. 1

Concertmaster Rimma Bergeron-Langlois- holder of the Lynn and Charles Steinmetz Concertmaster Chair- is the soloist on Prokofiev's Second Violin Concerto. The orchestra will be under the direction of Music Director Eric Jacobsen. There will be no intermission on this program.

Tickets start at $10, and are limited to allow for appropriate social distancing within the venue in keeping with safety practices recommended by the CDC and our local authorities. Strict safety protocols will be enforced on the concert night, to ensure the safety of the patrons, staff, and musicians in attendance. Temperature checks will be required for all before being allowed admittance into the venue, and face coverings must be worn at all times inside Calvary Orlando.

The FAIRWINDS Classics Series sponsor is FAIRWINDS Credit Union.
