This is the seventh year the Georgia Philharmonic performed at Dragon Con. Each year, there has always been a level of barely-contained excitement to the anticipation of the arrangement that will be performed. Each year, we think that it can’t get any better. Each year we are wrong. It’s always better.

This year was no exception.

The Hyatt Centennial was filled to capacity Saturday night as people waited for the lights to dim and the music to begin.

The hall was filled with the musical renditions of various shows and movies. The energy the performers put into these musical scores was displayed with their skill and dedication to their craft. No one was disappointed with this show. The two hours flew by. Riveting music, incredible performers, and the energy of Dragon Con made this one of the major highlights of the Con.

The Georgia Philharmonic is a philharmonic in the truest sense of the word: local musicians unite and perform out of their love of music. In doing so, these artists create classical music experiences that not only rival those of professional orchestras, but also delight and inspire their audience members.

Enthusiasts become repeat patrons, volunteers, and donors. Serving the communities of northern metropolitan Atlanta with cultural enhancement and education is their goal. Sharing their love and appreciation of fine music is their passion.

Fans of Dragon Con and of this talented philharmonic orchestra look forward to a stellar performance again next year. In the meantime, if you live in the area or come to Atlanta during the year, you should check out their other performances. Their web site is http://www.georgiaphilharmonic.org, which will have their upcoming performances.
