The Orillia Silver Band invites you to join them to experience a wonderful selection of theatre music. Our Theatre Treats Concert takes place on Saturday, November 2, 2024, 7:30 pm at the St. Paul’s Centre in Orillia.

Concert tickets are available from through Zeffy by clicking HERE or at the door.

Renowned Soprano vocal soloist Alexandra Teske will be joining the band for some terrific musical selections from Broadway, both classic and modern.

Alexandra will sing the haunting No One is Alone from Stephen Sondheim’s show “Into The Woods” and the riveting Being Alive from Sondheim’s Broadway favourite “Company”. No vocal theatre music collection is complete without some music of George Gershwin, and Alexandra will sing an engaging medley of Gershwin’s most well-known show tunes.

The band’s music director, Neil Barlow, says that the band has prepared many great selections beyond Ms. Teske’s vocal works to entice music lovers. Some of these tunes include the ever-popular Overture to The Italian in Algiers by Rossini, and the stirring Winsford March by J.A. Greenwood. Lovers of operatic favourites will be transported by a performance of Wagner’s Elsa’s Procession to the Cathedral from the opera “Lohengrin”. Not to overlook music from the videogame “theatre” of the modern home, the band will feature a rousing rhapsody of themes from the extremely popoular game The Legend of Zelda. Music from the cinematic theatre will be represented with a performance of the wildly exciting theme from The Incredibles by Michael Giacchino.

And, of course, all theatre music concerts need a high-energy collection of classic Broadway favourites.  Breezin’ Down Broadway by arranger Goff Richards will have everyone tapping their toes and singing along!

Please don’t miss this exciting evening of vocal and instrumental theatre music!
