Snowy Strings farewell friends
February 17, 2011
K’Ozzie Fest made beautiful music when members of the Paderewski Orchestra played with the Snowy Strings Orchestra in the Snowy Mountains over the weekend. Jindabyne Central School hall was packed on Sunday for their combined performance. THE orchestras played Bush Band Medley and Waves of Tory. Mary-Anne Simpson, conductor and director of Snowy String Orchestra, arranged these Australian pieces. Audiences also delighted over the weekend in instrumental music, songs and dances performed in the Polish royal court during the Late Middle Ages and the Renaissance.
The American performers study at the Paderewski Academy of Music of Chicago and are aged between 11 and 20 years. Snowy Strings farewelled their guests on Monday and look forward to meeting up with them again in Chicago in 2013.
