The Russians are coming, and they will be bringing musical instruments.
The Moscow Symphony Orchestra will take the stage Wednesday at Carroll Community College's Scott Center Theater for the CCC Foundation's Partners Campaign Starry Night gala.
"The college is very excited to be bringing this cultural experience here because it is part of the strategic plan to bring cultural offerings to the college for the whole community," said Sylvia Blair, Carroll's community relations coordinator.
Billed as "an elegant, festive event," the fundraiser will begin at 6:30 p.m. with a black tie optional cocktail reception in the Great Hall, then continue with the 40-piece symphony performance at 8 p.m., Blair said.
The performance will feature a 45-minute set of selections from The Nutcracker, an intermission, then a Holiday Pops set, including the "Harry Potter Concert Suite," "Christmas Festival," "Celebrate Christmas," "Sleigh Ride," "Russian Sailors Dance from the Red," "Fantasia on Green Sleeves" and "Phantom of the Opera."
