Fayetteville Symphony Orchestra (FSO) musicians recently completed work with the Opera Carolina cARTwheels program. Opera Carolina, a Charlotte-based nonprofit opera company, invited 10 FSO musicians to join the pit orchestra, conducted by Emily Jarrell Urbanek, for a statewide tour of a fully staged production of Pirates of Penzance for elementary school students.

 

FSO musicians joined the tour for the February 2008 performances in Alleghany, Dare, Moore and Cumberland Counties. The Cumberland County performance was held at Seabrook Auditorium at Fayetteville State University.

cARTwheels, Arts on the Move, is funded by the North Carolina Arts Council.
