The Long Island Philharmonic, in its first time performance at the Patchogue Theatre presents a  program that includes Mozart’s Overture to The Magic Flute, the popular Allegro of Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, and the signature “Jupiter Symphony.”  Also on the program is a work by Mozart’s friend and nemesis, Antonio Salieri.

     The well-known rivalry between Mozart and Salieri has often been the subject of literature in the past, most recently as the Broadway play and film,  “Amadeus.”  Maestro Wiley says he planned this program as a way of interesting new audiences in one of the most intriguing musical relationships in history.  He felt that for the Philharmonic’s first concert at this important South Shore concert hall, the Mozart-Salieri concert would appeal to many interested South Shore residents who have not heard the Philharmonic in its other venues.
