"Music can be all things to all men (People). It is like a great dynamic sun in the center of a solar system which sends out its rays and inspiration in every direction. … It is as if the heavens open and a divine voice calls. Something in our souls responds and understands."
Leopold StokowskiThank You for an Electrifying Night!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Rhythm Rising Tour – Electrify Your Symphony concert. What an incredible night of music!
Our students had the amazing opportunity to perform alongside Mark Wood, and it was truly an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.
We are especially grateful to our audience members for bringing such fantastic energy and enthusiasm to the performance. Your cheering, clapping, and excitement helped create the true feeling of a live rock concert and made the night even more special for our student musicians.
Experiences like this show our students how powerful music can be when a community comes together to support the arts. Thank you for being part of that moment with us.
We hope you enjoyed the performance as much as we enjoyed sharing it with you, and we look forward to seeing you at future Glendora Orchestra events!
