SPACO

SPACO

Hi All,

Wednesday Evening sees the opening concert of a new orchestra I am part of  - SPACO .  Check it out (click on the top right corner for the English page) – I know it’s a week night, but see if your parents can maybe take you.  It’s a really fun program – we’re doing Bach’s Brandenburg 3 and other well known pieces.  I’ll be conducting the Holst St. Pauls suite with the group, and play cello for the rest of the program.
