When the Salina Symphony performed the Farewell Symphony - Joseph Haydn’s Symphony No. 45 - in February 2020, the musicians had no idea they were about to say farewell to performing live for more than a year.
Salina Symphony s Listen Together Virtual Chamber Concert Series set for Sunday
By Gary Demuth
Losing the opportunity to conduct the Salina Symphony for the 2020-2021 season due to the COVID-19 pandemic was a huge disappointment for symphony interim music director David Littrell.
So, he decided to pull out his cello and perform in a virtual chamber concert along with several other symphony musicians.
“We had planned a regular season because we thought this would be all over by fall,” he said. “But in November we said forget it, we can’t do it. That’s why we’re doing virtual concerts.”
