Hayden DanielThe Chattanooga Symphony & Opera and the CSO Youth Orchestras will come together Sunday, Feb. 26, for their annual Side-By-Side Concert at the Tivoli Theatre.
The CSOYO will present the two most advanced of its four youth orchestras, the Symphony and Philharmonic, in separate selections, as well as in combination with the professional musicians of the CSO.
In a news release, organizers explain that the event gives the CSOYO’s aspiring students “a chance to learn more about their craft by working alongside the CSO musicians and gives the audience a chance to hear the huge sound of 150 musicians together on the Tivoli stage.”
The program features the top two winners of the 2016 CSOYO Concerto Competition in performances of their winning pieces with the CSO Orchestra. Violin soloist Hayden Daniel appears in Concerto No. 1 for Violin by Kabalevsky. Cello soloist Juliette Blais appears in Concerto No. 1 for Cello by Saint-Saens.
