The exciting, young musicians of the East Coast Chamber Orchestra, who made their Union College debut in April 2007, return Sunday, Jan. 4 at 3 p.m. in Memorial Chapel.
General admission tickets cost $20; area students will be admitted for half that price.
The show, part of the annual Chamber Concert Series, will feature selections from Wolfgang Mozart’s Divertimento for Strings in F major, Bela Bartok’s Divertimento for String Orchestra, Heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber’s “Battalia,” Edvard Grieg’s “Holberg Suite,” and Astor Piazzolla’s “Four for Tango.”
