Heartland Symphony Orchestra will present "Destinations" as its Greater Lakes Area Performing Arts concert at 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 31, in the Pequot Lakes High School auditorium.
HSO, in its 40th season, is a 50-piece volunteer, nonprofit musical collection of professionals and amateurs from central Minnesota.
Guest artists and conductors, local soloists and ensembles, area youth concerto winners, and charming repertoire commentary all help to make each concert unique and entertaining.
The orchestra is under the direction of Alexander Corbett, who is also music director of the Chamber Orchestra at the University of Minnesota and former conductor of the College of St. Benedict-St. John's University Symphony Orchestra.
Concertmaster is Leslie Zander, who is in her 15th year teaching middle level orchestra in the Brainerd Public Schools.
