Virginia Sinfonietta
The University of Virginia McIntire Department of Music presents the Virginia Sinfonietta in concert on Sunday, February 28th at 8:00 p.m. in Old Cabell Hall.
The Virginia Sinfonietta is a new professional chamber orchestra dedicated to the performance and creation of contemporary art music. This ensemble is the first of its kind in Virginia, unique in its personnel of collaborating university music faculty from across the Commonwealth, as well as in its focus on contemporary music. The primary activity of the ensemble is to present visceral and thought-provoking public performances, create recordings, and host regular outreach and educational events to accompany concert presentations. The ensemble consists of performers and composers representing the faculties of James Madison University, Shenandoah University, the University of Richmond, the University of Virginia and Virginia Tech.
This event is supported by the Eleanor Shea Music Trust.
