Sounds very cool.

A terrific concert which was quite well attended considering our Symphony Orchestra was performing a "Joni Mitchell Tribute" performance at the same time. We now have a full complement of musicians in every section and that really makes a huge difference. Our saxophone section played especially well last night and were stellar in "Jitterbug" by Robert Buckley. A fine start to our 2023-2024 Concert Season. Emptying of folders this coming Wednesday followed by the next set of music for our next performance in February.
