Echo Chamber Orchestra takes a gentle poke at Valentine's Day with "The Grand Divorce." After playing the Marriage of Figaro overture, the orchestra will 'split up' and perform music featuring the brass, woodwind, percussion and string sections. The ensemble will regroup to play a brand-new work, Rorqual (Reconciliation) by Marin composer Kevin Gordon. Daniel Canosa conducts.
