Happy New Year! We have two events to announce.

The first is a free concert on Wednesday, January 15 at 8pm, presenting 6 outstanding soloists who auditioned at our Michael H. Welles Young Soloist Competition this past November (the competition winner, Maggie Bai, appear with us at our March 23 Family Concert.)

The program includes selections for piano, violin, and bassoon with music of Saint-Saëns, Korngold, Rachmaninoff, and Weber, accompanied by the Wellesley Symphony. For this concert we are partnering with the Wellesley Food Pantry. Voluntary monetary donations will be gratefully received by a food pantry representative at the concert. Tickets are not required for this opportunity to see and support excellent young soloists, and help those in need this winter.

Our next Sunday concert features two great symphonies: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Symphony No. 40, also known as the "Great G minor symphony" and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's epic Symphony No. 5.
