Classical Music with a Twist

Cheeky young talents Bailey and Callum ready to rock at the recent Cooloola Community Orchestra concert

The Cooloola Community Orchestra along with Gympie Strings performed a concert in May at the Cooloola Coast Community Complex that was more than classical music: it was all class.

Latin, rock and jazz with a few classics had audience toes tapping to the beat and lip syncing to the melody.

In the mix were some Eagles, the Eleanor Rigby and Yesterday by The Beatles, and even an all-strings version of Ed Sheeran’s Perfect. The show was finished on time with an ‘about time’ section with the songs Summertime, As Time Goes By, and Time After Time.

If you are wanting a good time, then make sure you follow the Cooloola Community Orchestra Facebook Page to catch their next performance. The power of wood, wind and string accompanied by a bass and drum kit is an experience not to be missed!
