New Artistic Director/Conductor Dana Mambourg Zimbric

leads the California Chamber Orchestra

into its sixth season, one filled with new energy

and works by familiar composers -- Mozart, Bach, Mendelssoh, Ravel and more.

Some of Southern California's most talented musicians will be in the orchestra

for its four concerts as part of the Temecula Presents classical music series.  And

three ensembles from outside the region have been added to the mix for a great

seven-concert package.

The special Candlelight Classics concerts return for two December Sundays to get

concert-goers in the holiday moon.  And new for the New Year -- the 2nd Avenue

Klezmer Ensemble returns, due to popular demand, and this time will be on stage

in the main theater on Jan. 2.

Ticket prices remain the same.  Order season tickets now.  Mail orders received by

the Society by July 15 offer a $5 discount on the Klezmer concert.

Single concert tickets go on sale Aug. 8.
