USA - Livestream concerts are not just for rock. The Augusta Symphony demonstrated that in spirited fashion recently with its
A Little Night of Music, a pay-per-view Friday night show that drew an enthusiastic response from music lovers throughout its market. Taking place at the historic Miller Theatre in downtown Augusta, the livestream performance followed strict social distancing guideless. A very limited crowd was allowed to buy tickets for the performance in the spacious venue; and there was no intermission during the show to minimize contact. The orchestra itself was reimagined to include a smaller number of musicians on stage, led by music director Dirk Meyer, and featuring principal violinist Anastasia Petrunina, oboist Brian Lyons, and trumpeter Brian Winegardner.
