Extra attractions embellish this seventh year of the Waterford Concert Series to make the 2001 season one of our most memorable. Vocal music sung by young opera stars-to-be and a chorus from the Choral Arts Society counterbalance instrumental music played by a brilliant chamber trio and a brass quintet exploring Civil War music and the classical repertoire. New this year will be a special Friday performance by the Virginia Opera in November. Also new are guided walking tours of the village offered free before each concert. All performances begin at 4 o’clock on Sunday afternoons (except the Virginia Opera). Please come early to picnic or enjoy a meal at a local restaurant and explore Waterford and the surrounding countryside.
For the 2001 season, concerts are scheduled for the following dates:
March 18
April 29
September 9
October 21
November 16
Please see the Concert Schedule for a description of each concert and specials discounts available to our patrons.
Proceeds from the Waterford Concert Series will go toward renovating the Old School. A 1910-1928 building with a Greek portico on top of Big Hill, the Old School is used for concerts, lectures, plays and as a community center. Basic repairs have stabilized the structure in recent years, but more improvements are needed to make it comfortable year-round.
