Can you combine a #TBT and preview into one video? We at North State Symphony think you can. Just a little less than two weeks ago we recorded our first virtual concert of the seaons - "Mozart and More" - at Old City Hall in Redding. It was a joy to hear our musicians play as we got back into the flow and routine of producing live music to be recorded for our supporters, our communties, and ourselves. The following video is an excerpt from MOZART - String Quintet K. 516, w...ith an uplifting message from NSS Music Director @scottdirigent . Join us on Thursday, October 29th at 7pm for the Debut of this piece and more. Visit our website www.northstatesymphony.org for more informaiton.
