Bay Atlantic Symphony performs ‘contrasting’ concerts

By On Deck Staff

“Shadows and Light,” two contrasting sides of one of the greatest composers of the symphonic form—Johannes Brahms—will be explored at the Bay-Atlantic Symphony’s next concerts on Saturday and Sunday March 28 and 29.
Saturday’s performance takes place at 8 p.m., at the Frank Guaracini, Jr. Fine and Performing Arts Center, Cumberland County College, Sherman Avenue and College Drive, Vineland.
Sunday’s will be at 4 p.m., at the Richard Stockton College Performing Arts Center, Jimmie Leeds Road, Galloway Township.
The concerts, conducted by Music Director Jed Gaylin, will feature Brahms’ Piano Concerto No. 1 in D minor, Op. 15, with the dynamic pianist Marian Hahn from the staff of the Peabody Conservatory as soloist, and the composer’s Symphony No. 2 in D major, Op. 73.
The bluster, anguish, and passion of the concerto contrast with the contentment and ebullience of the symphony.
Both Bay-Atlantic Symphony performances will be preceded one hour prior to starting time with a “Pre-Concert Conversation with the Maestro.”
Tickets for the Guaracini Fine and Performing Arts Center performance are $30 for adults, $26 for those age 55 and over, $15 for students, and $8 for children, and may be ordered by calling the box office at 856-692-8499.
Tickets for the Stockton College Performing Arts Center performance are $40 ($35 for senior citizens) for orchestra level seats, $30 ($25 for senior citizens) for mezzanine level seats, and $15 for children (with an adult ticket), and may be ordered by calling the box office at 609-652-9000.
