SIDNEY — Next Friday, Sidney Classical Orchestra presents their Cluster of Concertos show at St. Elizabeth’s Church.

The show, led by artistic director and  conductor Stephen Brown, will feature Alberta Brown on the flute performing C. P. E. Bach’s Concerto for Flute in A Major, Misako Sotozaki playing Vivaldi’s Violin Concerto in C minor, Il Sospetto, and Russell Bajer on the oboe performing Handel’s Oboe Concerto in G minor.

The evening will wrap up with J. S. Bach’s Brandenburg Concerto No. 2 which uses the three soloists plus trumpet soloist David Michaux.

Also rounding out the program will be two  works for string orchestra: Purcell’s Chacony and Sibelius’ Andante festivo.
