Jennifer’s final concert as conductor is “Night at the Movies” Saturday, April 30th, 7:00 PM at the Center for the Arts Theater.
It has been a privilege to lead this talented group of musicians! They have become family. We have created tremendous musical moments together. Conducting them has been the highlight of my career! ~ Jennifer Levanduski
