Cleveland Escorts: Polar Bears, groundhogs, motorcycles due this week
The Lorain County Community College Civic Orchestra will keep the music short and sweet in an upcoming concert at LCCC’s Stocker Arts Center.
The orchestra will perform a series of shorter pieces in a concert called “Short Stuff” at 7:30 p.m., Saturday.
The family-friendly concert will feature selections used in movies, television, commercials and cartoons and is specifically designed for those who are interested in hearing orchestral music played beautifully, but may not be prepared to sit through a full-length, major composition.
From the contemplation of a seductive courtesan who is thinking about becoming a nun to a song about long, tall ears, this concert bill spans about three centuries and several stylistic periods. From stately to sensual, somber to silly, the concert provides a unique experience, a little bit at a time.
