The Central Oregon Chamber Orchestra, an ensemble drawn from the musicians of the Central Oregon Symphony, presents an engaging program spanning the Baroque, Classical, and contemporary eras. The concert will feature Arcangelo Corelli’s Concerto Grosso, Op. 6 No. 4, Serge Prokofiev’s spirited Classical Symphony, and Franz Joseph Haydn’s beloved Symphony No. 101, “The Clock.”

The program will also feature mezzo-soprano Charlene Chi, performing Celestial Threads by composer Chris Thomas. This evocative work was commissioned especially for Chi to perform at this concert, marking a special collaboration between composer and soloist.

Charlene Chi, originally from Toronto, is an acclaimed performer of operatic, chamber, and concert repertoire with appearances across North America, Europe, and South Korea. She has soloed with the Hawaiʻi Symphony Orchestra and the Seattle Chamber Orchestra and has performed in Rome’s Basilica di Santa Maria del Popolo, among many other distinguished venues.
