RCR & the NC Symphony

E-mail

RCR at the Symphony

RCR was honored to perform with the North Carolina Symphony  New Year's Eve of 2008, premiering three new orchestrations for "string band with orchestra" and one new suite composed and orchestrated by our own Jack Herrick. We performed with the symphony again on June 6, 2009 at the Koka Booth Amphitheater at Regency Park in Cary.

The popularity of the collaboration has led the orchestra members to request our presence at a special free concert in Moore Square (downtown Raleigh) on September 12.  Stay tuned for more details...

Listen to an excerpt from the suite, "The Old North State Ramble":
