While the swinging tones of jazz and more hovered in the air around downtown Carson City Tuesday night, the sweet melodies of Mozart pleased the ears of an audience at Shepherd of the Sierra Lutheran Church in South Carson City.

The concert was performed by the TOCCATA-Tahoe Symphony Orchestra and Chorus as part of its “Mozart in the Mountains” summer music series.
