GCO Presents Romantic Melodies

(Jan. 18, 2022) - Gateway Chamber Orchestra offers a stunning selection of Romantic Melodies, to celebrate your Valentine’s Day celebration. In its first masterworks program in over two years, GCO is delighted to present impassioned music for strings. 

Jessie Montgomery’s Banner, created in 2014, commemorates the 200th anniversary of The Star Spangled Banner, and provides a perfect reflection on the time that has passed since our last program. Noted for his rhythmically defined, and ultimately life enhancing music, George Walker’s achingly beautiful Lyric, sets the stage for Tchaikovsky’s great masterpiece, Serenade for Strings. The music is filled with radiant melodies, which evoke a sense of wonder and freshness from Mozart’s time and style, creating a sense of nostalgia, serenity, and beauty.

“We are so looking forward to sharing this beautiful and memorable music with our friends in Franklin,'' says Music Director Gregory Wolynec. “We have missed the Franklin Theatre and our audience so much!”
