Red Dress Event

Our next concert is coming right up. January 27 is the annual Red Dress Event, sponsored by Ogden Regional Medical Center. The concert takes place at 7:30 p.m. at Peery’s Egyptian Theater in downtown Ogden.

We will feature three members of the orchestra as soloists on this concert. Steve Park is principal horn of the orchestra, and will perform Chabrier’s Larghetto for Horn and Orchestra. Ryan Bell is the orchestra’s principal bassist, and Cara Richardson is a member of the clarinet section. They will join the orchestra for a performance of Bottesini’s Duo for Clarinet and Bass. Ryan and Cara collaborated on arranging the piano part of this duo for string orchestra, and they will perform that version with the string section of the orchestra.

The orchestra will have their say as well. We will begin the concert with Mozart’s Symphony No. 38, in D, K. 504 “Prague,” and end the concert with Tchaikovsky’s stirring Marche Slave, Opus 31.

Chamber Orchestra Ogden performs at Peery’s Egyptian Theater, 2415 Washington Blvd in Ogden. This historic theater is the orchestra’s home, and is a beautiful venue with excellent orchestra acoustics.
