The Richmond Delta Youth Orchestra presented Light Eternal Saturday in at Richmond Pentecostal Church.
The symphony orchestra's spring concert was dedicated to Wallace Leung, a former RDYO student, colleague and music director, who passed away suddenly in 2002.
The concert included RDYO concerto competition winner Samantha Kung with Edoard Lalo's Symphonie Espagnole and a special performance of Canadian composer John Estacio's Light Eternal that featured RDYO principal cellist Alanna Hunter.
Light Eternal was commissioned by the CBC Vancouver Radio Orchestra in 2005 as a tribute to Leung.
The Second Symphony by Beethoven and Rimsky-Korsakov's Capriccio Espagnol was also on the program.
