The First Year!

Well friends!
We have had a year's worth of Alphabet Concerts now!! We are almost halfway through our quirky series. Only almost, because we did have to postpone the "L" concert (which will be performed on February 19th) and it's been a wild ride. 31 musicians have performed on 11 concerts! We have found music that was new to us, some that was really a bit obscure...and some that was newly written! It has been a wonderful chance for us as musicians to connect and reconnect with our colleagues and a chance to meet and see friends in the audience regularly.
It has been a lot of work (that part is never part of the original idea!) and very rewarding.
We thank everyone who has been involved and look forward to more fun and festivities in 2011! 13 more concerts! a semi-staged opera included, and ending with Z and a big party...and of course the prizes! Lots of prizes! Don't lose track of your letters!
And see you soon!
"M" is next week! January 6 at Petaluma Museum at 7:30.
See you there!
