Led by Maestro Michael Gesme, the Central Oregon Symphony’s season finale takes place from May 20-22. A highlight of this spring concert series is the première performance of Cascades Suite, an original composition by James Barnes, commissioned to honor the history and culture of Central Oregon on the occasion of the 50 th anniversary of the COS. A second highlight is the return of favorite guest violinist, Linda Wang, performing the Brahms Violin Concerto. The orchestra also plays Danzon No. 2 by Márques, a piece inspired by a Mexican couples dance set to the rhythms of a charanga band. Evening concerts on Saturday and Monday begin at 7:30, and the Sunday matinee begins at 2:00 p.m., all at the Bend High School auditorium. Ticket information is at www.cosymphony.com. Topping off the finale weekend is the Musicians’ Gala honoring former and current musicians. More than 800 musicians who have played with the COS have been identified, and a number will be attending. (If you have played with the COS, please contact the COSA office.) Tickets are available to members for $50, which includes dinner and a memory book covering the fifty-year history of the Symphony. To become a member, go to the website or call 541-317- 3941. If you join now, you may purchase a ticket for the dinner, attend the spring concert and attend all of the concerts during the 2017-18 season.
