This year the Sinfonia will be heard in several new San Diego venues, beginning with our upcoming program. Entitled “A Paris Connection,” the concert will highlight music written for Parisians, including one of Franz Joseph Haydn’s Paris Symphonies, No. 83 (“The Hen”), and French composer Léo Delibes’ Le Roi s’Amuse, based on Renaissance dances. Also included will be the symphonic “Introduction and Overture” by Albéric Magnard, as well as the famous Duet from Bizet’s opera The Pearl Fishers, with tenor Felipe Prado Caceres and baritone John Polhamus. The concert will take place on Saturday, March 4, at 7:30 pm in Paradise Valley 7th-Day Adventist Church, located at 2701 East 8th St., in National City. (From 805, take the Plaza Blvd. exit to the East; turn left onto Euclid, then right onto East 8th St.; the Church will be on your left; turn left just before the Church, onto Burden Dr. There is a parking lot to your left.) The orchestra will also present a one-hour encore performance of the Haydn and Delibes on Sunday, March 19, at 3:00 pm, in All Saints’ Episcopal Church, located at Sixth and Pennsylvania Aves., in Hillcrest. Both programs will be Free.
