Vivaldi Strings Youth Ensemble to Perform March 9 at St. Mark's

The Vivaldi Strings Youth Ensemble will perform in a free concert at 7:30 p.m. Friday, March 9 in the sanctuary of St. Mark’s Episcopal Church on Main Street at Hillside Avenue in Glen Ellyn.

The ensemble is a group of about 25 young string performers from the Suzuki Program at the Community School of the Arts at Wheaton College. The Vivaldi Strings’ repertoire includes works of Bach, Vivaldi, Mozart, Beethoven and Shostakovich.

The Vivaldi Strings tour nationally and internationally. They are the sole group representing the United States at the Tianjin International Children’s Music Festival near Beijing, China this summer.

The concert is part of the church’s ongoing music series designed to bring top quality solo musicians and ensembles to Glen Ellyn.
