Chamber Music Concert
Sunday, March 6, 2011 at 3:00 p.m.

It is music for listening, thinking, and imagining: it is music that speaks to the mind and the heart. The Brockton Symphony Chamber Players perform some of their favorites.

BALDASSARE: Sonata No. 1 in F for Trumpet, Strings and Basso Continuo
