VCO Repertoire
Each year we give most of our attention to the music we intend to perform during the holiday season and at our spring concert in early April. You can get a good idea of the variety of our musical styles by looking over our repertoire over the last few years.
This year (2021-2022) we have chosen several pieces composed by historically significant ‘string’ composers and more contemporary as well;
- Theme from the Addams Family (TV series and movie) – V. Mizzy
- Sinfonia in G – D. Gallo
- Yesterday – J. Lennon and P. McCartney
- Forgotten Dreams – L. Anderson
- El Toro – D. Brubaker
- Farandole – G. Bizet
- Oblivion – A. Piazzola
