A Requiem (Mass for the Dead), the Church's supreme prayer for the faithful departed, will be celebrated in the Extraordinary Form of the Mass. At the heart of this celebration is the Holy Sacrifice of Christ, made present for the repose of the souls of the dead. Within this sacred liturgy, the Cathedral Choir and Orchestra will present Luigi Cherubini's Requiem in C Minor. As this piece will be presented in the setting for which it was intended, a worship service, the event is free to attend. A free will offering for the Sacred Music Series will be collected.

The Panhandle Symphony Orchestra is excited to perform their Fall Concert for the musical enjoyment of our great community. It will be held Tuesday, November 18, 7:00 pm at Lake City High School. Conductor, Tim Sandford has chosen some familiar pieces for our audience to enjoy, including songs from the well-known movie “Jurassic Park” which was released in 1993 and has won 3 Oscars as well as the BMI Film Music Award in 1994.

“Danse Macabre” by Camille Saint-Saens was written in 1874 and would go on to become his most famous tone poem. From the original art song for voice and piano, he expanded and reworked the piece into a symphonic poem, where a solo violin plays the vocal line.

Johann Strauss composed a very fun Polka called “Unter Donner und Blitz” which accompanies several Christmas themed songs that are in the performance, such as “Stille Nacht” which was recorded by Mannheim Steamroller and “Christmas at the Movies” which includes songs from The Polar Express and Miracle on 34th Street.

The orchestra will also be performing “Two Puccini Arias”, arranged by Chris Bernotas which includes “O Mio Babbino Caro” and “Nessun Dorma”, two of the composer’s most beloved arias. The orchestra members are proud to play this piece for the enjoyment of our audience.

Tuesday, November 18th, at 7:00 pm in the Lake City High School Auditorium, our organization’s volunteer community members will present this free concert for the enjoyment of the entire family. Doors open at 6:30 pm.
