Culture Crawl 906 “And The Mighty Wurlitzer, Too!”
The Cedar Rapids Community Orchestra celebrates its 10th anniversary with a special concert April 7 at 3pm in the Paramount Theatre. It will be a bittersweet event, as this will also be director Ghyas Zeidieh’s final concert at the helm.
Ghyas will go out with a bang, though! The program will feature a brand new commission from Cedar Rapids composer Jerry Owen, as well as Ravel’s “Bolero,” and a U.S. premiere from Middle East composer Solhi al-Wadi. The finale will be Saint-Saëns’ Organ Concerto, which will feature the Paramount’s Might Wurlitzer organ!
Admission is free. More information at www.crorchestra.org.
