Sage City Symphony to Present Free Winter Concert
BENNINGTON, Vt — Sage City Symphony will perform its annual Winter Concert on Sunday, Feb. 9, at 4:00 p.m. in Greenwall Auditorium at Bennington College's VAPA Building. The concert is free and open to the public.
The program will feature Mozart's Concerto for Bassoon in B-flat Major, with bassoonist Gerald Lanoue as soloist, Mendelssohn's Symphony No. 4 in A Major ("Italian"), and Bridget Anne Hart: An Irish Legacy, a work for narrator, wind quartet, and strings by composer Robert Merfeld.
Lanoue, a Bennington native, is an accomplished bassoonist, conductor, and teacher, performing with ensembles across the Northeast. Merfeld, a pianist and composer, has an extensive performance career, including appearances at Lincoln Center and Carnegie Hall, and serves on the faculty at Boston University.
The symphony is conducted by music director Michael Finckel, a Bennington native with a diverse career as a cellist, composer, and educator. Finckel, who studied under Sage City Symphony co-founder Louis Calabro, continues the orchestra's long-standing tradition of community engagement and musical excellence.
