McKeesport Symphony Orchestra's March 18 concert will be broadcast tonight on Pittsburgh's WRCT-FM (88.3).
The "Mostly Mozart" concert, which featured some of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's most famous arias, duets and trios, airs at 7 p.m. on WRCT and may also be heard online at www.wrct.org.
The broadcast comes less than a week before the MSO wraps up its 2011-12 season with a concert spotlighting the movie music of composer John Williams.
This coming Saturday, the MSO will present an evening of popular classics from Beethoven, Debussy and Sibelius, as well as portions of Williams' film scores for the "Harry Potter" series, "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" and the "Star Wars" series.
That season-ending concert under the direction of principal conductor Bruce Lauffer is at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at McKeesport Area High School, 1960 Eden Park Blvd. For more information or directions, visit the symphony's website.
The March 18 concert to be broadcast tonight features soloists Julie McGough on flute, along with vocalists Alexandra Loutsion (soprano) and Kyle Oliver (baritone) of the Pittsburgh Opera.
The concert was recorded by Tube City Community Media Inc., which operates the Tube City Online and Tube City Almanac websites. WRCT is a non-commercial radio station owned by students at Carnegie Mellon University.
