Metropolitan Chamber Orchestra of Columbus 11/20

We did a performance at the Barnes and Noble bookstore to help raise money for the orchestra. The concert included Beethoven's First Symphony. The orchestra was broken up into smaller groups and performed throughout the day. I took part in a performance with a quartet of French Horns in the late afternoon which included arrangements of Mozart's The Magic Flute overture and tunes from Gilbert and Sullivan's The Pirates of Penzance. We also did a few Christmas selections for the holiday season and an arrangement of the Pie Jesu from Faure's Requiem. The quartet was unable to rehearse very often but all things considered, the performances were fine.
