Nofs and MadelynThe second “Side by Side” concert performed in Wayland by the WHS Strings Orchestra and members of the Grand Rapids Symphony Orchestra took place Tuesday evening in the Fine Arts Center. As part of the GR Symphony’s Community Outreach program, musicians come to a town and perform “side by side” with youth in local high school music programs, providing an unforgettable experience for the teens. The program first was done at the FAC in 2012, so this was the second such concert. Shown at left are WHS Orchestra Director Lynn Nofsinger with student Madelyn Gray.
