On Sunday, April 24th at 3:00 pm, the Fox Valley Philharmonic Orchestra, and director Maryann Flock, will present a free concert featuring two noteworthy soloists. The Fox Valley Academy Concerto Competition Winner, twelve year-old Lily Johnson of Naperville will perform Telemann's energizing Viola Concerto in G major. Ms. Johnson has been a member of the Academy of Music Performance since 2012 performing in numerous concerts and recitals in the Chicagoland area. In addition to our youth winner, Kristine Mertens, Philharmonic principal oboist, will delight audiences with Jean Francaix, The Flower Clock for solo oboe and orchestra. In this composition each movement is named to depict a flower that blooms each hour. The concept was used by Swedish botanist Linnaeus in his clock of blooming flowers in 1759. The concert will also feature other full orchestral works by the Philharmonic Orchestra. The Philharmonic is an integral part of the Fox Valley Academy of Music Performance. The Academy's Youth Strings and Orchestra will perform a classical concert on the same date at a 1:00 pm concert. Come experience artistic music in the serene atmosphere of Our Savior Lutheran Church in Aurora. Admission to the concert is free, but donations are accepted. The address is 420 W. Downer Place, Aurora (plenty of parking in the rear), just blocks away from downtown Aurora. For more information on this or future concerts, visit the Philharmonic Orchestra's website at www.FVacademy.org, or call 630-476-9072. Our concerts are partially supported by a grant from the Illinois Arts Council agency.

I am so thankful that a few of my fellow Batavian’s recommended the Batavia Chamber of Commerce to me. Since I joined I feel as though I have been blessed with a second family with all the support and motivation I get from them on a regular basis. Margaret, Patti and Shirley are the most amazing women. They have great passion for business and helping people. I truly feel they care about my business on a personal level and want to see it grow and succeed as much as I do! They have gone the extra mile to get my name and my business name out there and introduce me to the business community. The Chamber has so many opportunities available that have helped my business both grow and problem solve such as the free monthly Networking It events. I highly recommend the Batavia Chamber of Commerce to all business professionals.
