Principal conductor Octavio M’s-Arocas returns for a second year to lead the orchestra. The MSO will begin the year with the Brahms’ “Double Concerto,” performed by violinist Scott Flavin and cellist Ross Harbaugh of the Bergonzi Trio. Many will recognize those names as frequent performers in the Pine Mountain Music Festival.

This concert begins at 7:30 p.m. and will also include Schubert’s “Unfinished Symphony” and David Little’s “Haunted Topography.”
