Linden Christ, center, stands with Sue Maurer, left, and Ken Maurer of Metamora during intermission at a Peoria Symphony Orchestra performance Tuesday night.

Chicago resident, and Metamora native, Linden Christ was back in the area on Valentine's Day.

We have video of her appearance at the Peoria Symphony Orchestra's Valentine's Day concert.

Christ was the featured vocalist for the concert titled "The Romantic Gershwins."

George Stelluto, music director and conductor for the orchestra, said he was very pleased to have Christ there.

"Her vocals add a charm and a sparkle that makes the evening," he said. "Her talent and personality warms the evening."

Go to videos farther down the page and see her perform "Embraceable You" and "The Man I Love."
