Greater Bridgeport Symphony Concert Saturday March 16th @ 8:00pm

The flute figures prominently with solos by GBS’ own Grammy® nominated Principal Flautist, Keith Bonner. Debussy’s ethereal Afternoon of a Faun, Paul Schoenfeld’s Klezmer Rondos, and African-American composer Jessie Montgomery’s Coincident Dances surround Schubert’s Symphony No. 5.  Not “The Magic Flute,” but a whole night of the magic of the flute!
