Port Angeles Symphony Orchestra holds its annual fundraising and celebration Concert and Cuisine at C'est Si Bon restaurant on Saturday, Sept. 18. A four-course dinner, served with wine, and three choices of entrées will be served after the concert.
Three musicians recognized at the symphony's annual Young Artist Competitions will perform.
Johanna Jacobsen, of Sequim, has been playing oboe for seven years. Jacobson plays oboe with the Northwinds Homeschool Concert Band and bass guitar with the Northwinds Advanced Jazz Band. She also plays with the worship team at her church. Last year, she rehearsed and performed with Port Angeles High School's orchestra and traveled with them to New York City to perform at Carnegie Hall.

She plays in the school's chamber orchestra, played six years with the North Olympic Youth Symphony and one year with the P.A. Symphony Orchestra. She has earned many awards in competitions. She enjoys Celtic fiddling and plays with the Black Diamond Fiddle Club.
