Concerts are a Huge Success<p>
The recent performances of the Vallarta Chamber Orchestra were two very special evenings of music for Vallartenses. The program had something for everyone and the talented musicians impressed the very receptive audience. The highlight of the evening was the presentation of a new composition, "Vallarta Overture" written especially for this occasion by Canadian John Robertson, who vacations in Vallarta. <br>

Guest violinist, Kathryn Hoffer from Alaska, along with narrator Don MacLachlan, delighted the audience with their presentation of Ferdinand the Bull.  Kathy Overly accompanied by d'Rachel on flute and Sharon Baughman-White on keyboard sang a thrilling version of Shubert's Shepherd on a Rock.  Vicki Jorgensen, musician and conductor, conducted the Bach Orchestral Suite #1 as well as Grieg's Holberg Suite.  Rigoberto Mora, not only played Astorias-Suite Española on his classical guitar, but conducted the orchestra in the dazzling "Vallarta Overture."<br>

The standing ovation and cheers from the audience attests to the warm reception that the audience gave to this very talented group of musicians. You will not want to miss their next performance. For Vallarta to have a resident Chamber Orchestra is a welcome addition to the many existing cultural opportunities in this wonderful city. Thank you Vallarta Chamber Orchestra!
