Wichita North High School String Quartet to join the pros
EntSun News/10760296
WICHITA, Kan. - Dec. 9, 2018 - EntSun -- When the touring show Beatles vs. Stones – A Musical Showdown comes to the Orpheum Theatre on January 22, the Wichita North High School String Quartet will join the professional musicians on stage to lend some local talent to this homage to the British Invasion.
The show pits Rolling Stones tribute band Satisfaction against rival Brit boys Abbey Road in an all-out musical showdown for rock dominance. The string quartet will perform seven songs with the bands.
Here's the rundown:
The show: The two greatest rock 'n' roll bands of all time face off in Beatles vs. Stones - A Musical Showdown. Taking the side of the Fab Four is Abbey Road, one of the nation's top Beatles tribute bands. With brilliant musicianship and authentic costumes and gear, Abbey Road plays beloved songs spanning the Beatles' career. They engage in a "showdown" of the hits with Stones tribute band Satisfaction - The International Rolling Stones Show, who offer a faithful rendition of the music and style of Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and the bad boys of the British Invasion. The production includes multimedia, period costumes and vintage instruments. It has toured for years, with a critic for the Los Angeles Times at one point declaring: "this is the most unique tribute show in decades." The Wichita show is part of a 125 city tour of the U.S., Canada and Australia.
The string quartet: Wichita High North sophomores Jaylene Deleon, Elizabeth Treto and freshmen Emily Truong and Lyly Le will join the bands for the songs "Eleanor Rigby," "Yesterday," "A Day in the Life," "Hello Goodbye," "Hey Jude," "Gimme Shelter," and "Ruby Tuesday."

The quartet members belong to prestigious area ensembles, including the All-City Honors Orchestra, Wichita Youth Symphony, and the South Central Kansas Music Education Orchestra. Members have competed in Solo and Ensemble festivals, receiving superior ratings numerous times.
How the "Beatles" and "Stones" connection was started: The producers of Beatles vs. Stones approached North High School Director of Bands and Orchestra Stephanie Byers looking for a talented ensemble that could hold their own with a rock band in front of an audience. The show commonly hires a local quartet to augment the production while on tour.
The details: Two of the greatest bands of all time face off in a high-energy, adrenaline-pumping musical showdown. The Fab Four, represented by tribute band Abbey Road, will engage in a barrage of hits against premier Rolling Stones tribute band Satisfaction. Beatles vs. Stones – A Musical Showdown comes to the Orpheum Theatre on Tuesday, January 22 at 7:30 pm. Tickets are $28.50 - $68.50 and may be purchased online at www.wichitaorpheum.com, by phone at 855-755-SEAT (7328) or at the Select-A-Seat Box Office at INTRUST Bank Arena, 500 E.
