and the BBC Orchestra of London have played for audiences at
Community Church, along with soloists such as Joshua Bell and
Barry Douglas.
Christ by the Sea United Methodist Church’s music director,
Marcos Flores, produces a winter series that often includes local
professional musicians in a fun and sometimes raucous concert,
and solo recitals by musicians brought in from out of town and
out of the country. Jacob Craig, in charge of music and arts at
First Presbyterian Church, brings in small groups and soloists and
sometimes can be persuaded to join in on bagpipes or piano.
It isn’t all classical music that’s available at the turn of Vero
Beach’s century. Live From Vero Beach brings back the music of
the ’60s and later at the Emerson Center. Riverside Theatre’s Live
in the Loop fills the entrance apron with audiences rocking to
blues, country and rock ’n’ roll all year. The Treasure Coast Jazz
Society offers a luncheon concert series every winter.
Lucinda Gedeon’s words will ring as true in Vero Beach’s second
century as they do as the first ends: “We are indeed a fortunate
community.” F
