Scottsdale, AZ, May 08, 2021 --(PR.com)-- The Scottsdale Philharmonic Orchestra received a standing ovation for its May 2 concert at the Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts. “It was a magical program filled with passion and emotions,” says Joy Partridge, Scottsdale Philharmonic Co-Founder. “All of our musicians were elated to perform and present our first concert of the season. Our next concert is June 27, and will be 4th of July themed--it will be spectacular. Look for the digital program and details on the website."
