String Orchestra Produces Concert Video Available on YouTube

Recorded at Southland Baptist Church, the 22-minute concert video is titled “Autumn Divertimento” and includes performances of:

• “Divertimento” in B Flat Major by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
• Three Pieces in Baroque Style by Krzysztof Penderecki
• “Concerto Grosso No. 1” for String Orchestra with Piano Obligato by Ernest Bloch

Dr. Fagner Rocha The String Orchestra is directed by Dr. Fagner Rocha, ASU director of orchestral activities, who also accompanied the students on violin for the concert.

“Since we are not able to hold public performances, I presented a new project to the students – to produce a high-quality video performance, which would teach them what goes on behind the scenes of music video production,” Rocha said. “The students are very proud of the final result, and we were able to make the best out of the situation.”

• Loxi Bell of Fredericksburg – Violin I
