The Macao Orchestra kicks off its second season with the first concert in the Mendelssohn Series. Under the direction of Artistic Director En Shao, and featuring virtuoso violinist Joshua Bell, the Orchestra will perform Mendelssohn’s notable Violin Concerto in E minor. Praised by the Baltimore Sun as “making passionately expressive and angelically pure music,” the participation of Joshua Bell should be a good reason to make sure you don’t miss this wonderful Gala Concert. We cordially invite you to join in the celebration.
