Apr. 29—BEMIDJI — The Bemidji Symphony Orchestra wrapped up its 85th season on Sunday by performing alongside Grammy-nominated soloist Jason Thoms and vocalists with three local choirs.

Joining the BSO in its final performance of the season were the Bemidji Chorale, the Bemidji Choir from BSU, and the Park Rapids Classic Chorale. The groups performed Ralph Vaughan Williams' "Five Mystical Songs."

The orchestra was also joined by soloist Jason Thoms, a music professor at Bismarck State College in North Dakota. Thoms is a bass-baritone who has performed around the world and recently conducted the Dakota Pro Musica choir which performed alongside the BSO in October.

The BSO also played the challenging "Enigma Variations" by British composer Edward Elgar to complete its season.
