Erika Vasallo, Mezzo-Soprano, will make her debut as the Alto Soloist in The Florida Orchestra’s concerts of Beethoven’s Choral Fantasy.

More information about Beethoven’s Choral Fantasy on The Florida Orchestra’s website: Michael Francis conducts an unforgettable evening of music and storytelling. Be uplifted by Beethoven's Choral Fantasy, a fusion of piano, orchestra and choir that hints at the famous Ode to Joy theme. Then, Bernstein’s deeply moving “Kaddish” Symphony features text by Samuel Pisar, who defied all odds to survive multiple Holocaust concentration camps as a child. In this rare performance, his widow, Judith, and daughter, Leah, provide special narration. Both works feature The Master Chorale of Tampa Bay, principal chorus of The Florida Orchestra.

Show dates and times: November 7 @ 8 PM @ The Straz Center & November 8 @ 8 PM @ the Mahaffey Theater.
