Goulburn Valley Concert Orchestra begins its September series of chamber concerts this Sunday with a varied program of music from jazz to Schubert.
Three free Sunday concerts will be held in the function room at Shepparton’s Eastbank Centre from September 1.
GV Orchestra leader Wendy Oakes said the concerts had proved popular since they started more than a decade ago.
‘‘They started as small concerts in the art gallery, then moved to the café area at Eastbank — now they are in the function room and attract between 150 and 180 people, which is fantastic,’’ she said.
Concerts run from 2pm to 3.30pm. Entry is free, but a gold coin donation is appreciated.
