The Nanaimo Chamber Orchestra presents its second concert of the season, Prelude To The Ides, March 9 at Brechin United Church, starting at 7:30 p.m. Guest violinist Karl Rainer will play winter and summer from The Four Seasons.

The concert also features Mendelssohn’s Sifonia No. 10, Vasily Kalinnikov’s Serenade and Alberto Williams’ Primera Suite Argentina.

The orchestra is also showcasing its new harpsichord during the event, which was recently purchased thanks to several years of fundraising activities and the generosity of donors.
