WOW!!  What a great Concert on Friday night. True to form, Rachel's performance was great to watch and hear!  Her concert Friends ranged in age from "6 and a half" to 15 years. The amazing sounds generated by each set of those fingers were a real treat. It is too bad that we didn't have a larger audience to enjoy these very capable young performers. 
 The last few weeks leading up to the concert were especially hectic for members of the Committee....details, details, details!  Anyone who did not have grey hair previously likely has some grey strands showing now as a resultTo this new cohort of "dust-bunnies-in-waiting",  a very warm welcome to our ranks from those of us already blessed with the full "dust bunny" heads!  It is too bad that we did not have the live stream but we now have the idea for another event. Speaking of which, we will provide updates as things progress.  Watch this space! 

The Camp Douglas Fall Work Party has just been scheduled for Saturday, October 19. We'd love it if you were able to join us!

Remembrance and Reflection features movements from Mozart and Fauré’s breathtaking Requiems, as well as Schubert’s famous Stabat Mater, and the opening of his Mass in A flat.
Specially chosen for November, the month of remembrance, this beautiful music was written by composers who knew how to express the full expanse of human emotion, and to compassionately turn us from sorrow towards healing, and hope.
