The Downey Symphony Orchestra brought down the house on Saturday, with an excellent concert and excitement for the future. The “Downey Overture” by Oscar Navarro was electric and vibrant, “Noah’s Ark” soared with emotion, Tim Callobre’s solo guitar held the audience captive, who then were entranced by the beauty of “Bolero.”
Here are photos from the evening. Hopefully at some point we can get clearance to release video of the Downey Overture online.
