Celebrating a Brockport tradition, the Brockport Symphony Orchestra will present their 15th Annual Holiday Pops Concert on Saturday, December 7, 2024, 7PM at the First Presbyterian Church of Brockport, 35 State Street in the Village of Brockport. Directed by Jonathan Allentoff, this family celebration will feature vocal artists Mary Wojciechowski and Michael DeLuca, violin soloist Eloise Fadial, and clarinet soloist Rachel Roessel.
Wojciechowski, a graduate of Nazareth College and Temple University, has performed as a vocal soloist at the Rochester International Jazz Festival and the Corning Museum of Glass. She appeared with the Philadelphia Pops Festival Chorus under the baton of Peter Nero. DeLuca studied vocal performance with Heinz Rehfuss while attending the University at Buffalo and has performed on stage across Western New York. He records and produces a variety of studio albums for the major streaming platforms.
Fadial, the orchestra’s concertmaster, studied with Grammy-nominated violinist Dr. John Fadial and the distinguished Dr. Beth Vanderborgh at the University of Wyoming. She performed with the University of Wyoming Symphony and Chamber Orchestras and was the recipient of the prestigious McElhone Scholarship. Currently completing a PhD in Biomedical Engineering at the University of Rochester, she performs as concertmaster and violin soloist with the Eastman Summer Studio Orchestra and appears as a violinist and violist on the University of Rochester Chamber Music Series. Roessel, the orchestra’s principal clarinet, received a Bachelor of Arts in Music from SUNY Oswego. She performs with numerous ensembles in the Greater Rochester area and has appeared in multiple “Side by Side” sessions with the Rochester Philharmonic Orchestra.
The orchestra will also present an encore performance of this program at the Livingston County Auditorium, 1 Murray Hill Drive, Mt. Morris on Saturday, December 14, 2024, at 7PM, hosted by the Genesee Valley Council on the Arts.
Admission is free, and donations will be gratefully accepted.
