On Oct. 13, the audience which afilled the house at the Tryon Fine Arts Center was treated to a two-hour concert of music from composers Johann Sebastian Bach to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart to Frédéric Chopin to Camille Saint-Saëns to Scott Joplin and on up to George Gershwin, with many other composers intermingled.

Concert-goers enjoyed hearing performances by musicians on a variety of instruments including piano, bassoon, voice, guitar, flute and cello.

Of particular interest were the performances by Concert Pianist Elizabeth Child and the outstanding Scholarship Award Recipients pictured above.
