The Orlando Philharmonic announces the 2008-2009 season of its popular Focus Series. The programs of the Focus Series put the “focus” on musical themes and feature the work of a variety of composers, as they highlight the best of the chamber orchestra repertoire in an interesting "theater-in-the-round" setting.
