The Scottsdale Philharmonic will perform its next free classical music concert on Sunday, Oct. 14, from 4-6 p.m. at the Scottsdale Bible Church, 7601 E Shea Blvd., Scottsdale.

Pieces to be performed by the Philharmonic on Oct. 14 and their composers include: “Piano Concerto No. 1” by Liszt, featuring Pianist Qingqing Ye; “The Swan of Tuonela” by Sibelius; and “Coriolan Overture” by Beethoven

The Scottsdale Philharmonic mission is to bring classical music free of charge to people of all ages.

“Our mission has now grown,” says Joy Partridge, President and Co-founder of the Scottsdale Philharmonic. “We are creating an Annual Children’s Concert to introduce all 3rd graders to classical music. We also are working on forming a Scottsdale Symphony Orchestra for all high school students in the valley, and we are providing music scholarships for underprivileged youth.”

The Scottsdale Philharmonic continues with free concerts. The next free concert is on Sunday, Nov. 18. This concert will be held at La Casa de Cristo Lutheran Church, 6300 E Bell Rd., Scottsdale.
