Spring Concert Series 2024
Hailed as an “Astounding Virtuoso” and “Exhilarating” performer, the rising-star percussionist, Britton- René Collins, will join the COS for our season finale. Noted for her exceptional musicianship and active passion for creating social change through her music, Britton-René will perform a new work by Australian based composer, Sergei Golovko. Also featured on the concert will be a lightning-fast prelude from Wagner’s opera Lohengrin and Rachmaninoff’s Symphony No. 2, which LA Philharmonic program annotator, Orrin Howard, describes as “an abundance of gorgeously conceived lushness and tautly brilliant propulsiveness, both operating within orchestral textures of rich sonority.”

Winter Concert 2024
Following last year’s Central Oregon Chamber Orchestra performance of Louise Farrenc’s Symphony No. 3, we are pleased to perform another work by this fantastic nineteenthcentury French composer, her Concert Overture No. 2. Jumping across the border to Spain, and forward three-quarters of a century, we will hear the soulful strains and driving rhythms of Spanish dance music drawn from Manuel de Falla’s ballet The Three-Cornered Hat. Additionally, the winners of the Central Oregon Symphony Association Young Artist Competition will be featured on this concert. Winners have been announced. See announcement here.

Virginia Riggs Children's Concert & Instrument Petting Zoo
Named after a former Central Oregon Symphony cellist with a passion for educating young people (and those young at heart), the Virginia Riggs Children's Concert is fun, educational, and open to all.
Come early for the instrument petting zoo, where children can enjoy an up-close experience with the instruments of the orchestra as symphony musicians play them. There is also the opportunity to try your hand at different instruments and find out where you might have a hidden talent or passion! Afterward, stay for an interactive concert designed with kids in mind.
This event is held at Bend Senior High School and will take place Saturday, February 24, 2024, starting at 9 am with the instrument petting zoo with the concert starting at 10 am.
