This Friday, the Wheeling Symphony continues to celebrate its 80th season, with a concert featuring soloists from the orchestra.  Violinist Rachel Stegman, oboe player Robert Driscoll, Jr., and harpist Fran Duffy will be leaving their customary seats and step out in front of the orchestra to play music by Handel and Bach, Friday at the Capitol Theater in Wheeling.
