In anticipation of the following weekend's performances of 'Do, Re, Mi, Fa...bene,' conductor of The Genesee Valley Orchestra and Chorus visited the High Falls Studios. Maestro Raffaele Ponti met with Joe Capogreco and announced how Joe would be opening the performances with some informal opera chat, specifically dealing with the Italian composers featured during the show (Vivaldi, Verdi, Puccini).
The Genesee Valley Orchestra and Chorus is dedicated to enriching the lives of area residents by presenting high quality musical performances throughout the Genesee Valley.
Friday and Saturday (11/4 & 5/2005) are sure to be fine examples of the GVOC's talent.
