Founders' Open Mic Night
Tuesday, April 30, 2019

The Vintage Parlor Orchestra performs at the Wealthy Theatre for the very first time! Since its inception in October 2018, VPO has produced 21 programs in various Grand Rapids venues performing classical music in non-traditional spaces. The orchestra specializes in giving performance opportunities to local composers and musicians from the West Michigan area.
​
Opening our 22nd program will be the highly recognizable Overture to Rossini's opera The Barber of Seville. Next, we are excited to invite guest conductor Josh Zallar to the podium for Robert Schumann's Overture, Scherzo, and Finale. After intermission and a rousing game of Random Instrument Challenge, the concert will conclude with the "Tragic" Symphony No. 4 in C minor by Franz Schubert.
Grab a beer and experience classical music like never before! The night will feature a relaxed atmosphere, clapping between all movements, a 35 member chamber orchestra, and an open concession stand! We will also be engaging our audience in a game of Random Instrument Challenge. Instruments are courtesy of our sponsor, Meyer Music.
