Concertino da Camera by Jacques Ibert

with Maestro Giuseppe

Cole, a 4th Year Performance Major, gave a masterful performance of the Concertino, a well-known composition from the standard concert repertoire. The concert - at the UVic Farquhar Centre Auditorium - was well attended. Cole received a well deserved standing ovation from the audience. Congratulations Cole!

Many thanks to Maestro Pietraroia, Conductor of the University of Victoria Orchestra for this season, and Conductor-in-Residence for both Pacific Opera Victoria and the Victoria Symphony. Maestro Pietraroia is a saxophonist who has himself performed the Ibert Concertino. Thank you, Maestro (Joey), for a brilliant performance!
