I know it's a work night, but the concert won't
be that long. I'm pleased with the way thing
have been
falling
into place
at rehearsals. It should
be a very pleasant, uplifting experience.
During the summer, I recommend the Gateway Festival Orchestra concerts
at Wash U. quadrangle on Sunday eves in July. They are excellent outdoor
concerts featuring symphonies, soloists and pops stuff. People bring
families, blankets, picnics etc. and Gateway sells Ted Drewes and other
refreshments.
In the fall, look for my announcements re U. City Symphony concerts
at COCA and other venues, and Klezundheit! at CRC's Simchat Torah celebration
and Classic 99's Rhapsody in Bloom at the Botanical Gardens. Hope to
see y'all soon.
