A large crowd filled St Joseph’s Church in Warrnambool for the 10th annual event on Sunday.
The concert saw the orchestra run through a diverse program that included Mozart, Smetana, Wagner, Sir Arthur Sullivan, and popular film composer John Williams, as well as Verdi’s much-loved Anvil Chorus, and the finale of Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony.
It also featured the premiere of Wannon Suite, a new piece composed by Warrnambool’s Dr Ken Stott, who has penned a number of works for the orchestra.
The orchestra was led by Hamilton’s Angus Christie, who returned to fulfil duties as guest conductor.
