Dear
Music Lover:
Sincere
thanks for your subscription
and support for the ninth
season of the Southern Tier
Symphony. We have some special treats in store for
you.
Our
opening concerts on October 1
and 2 will deliver examples of
great beauty from Italian
opera and two fabulous
masterpieces
by Tchaikovsky and Respighi.
“A
Taste of Italy” marks
another ‘milestone’ for
our orchestra, as we present a
group of 72 musicians to
accommodate the orchestral
instrumentation demands of
“Pines of Rome.”
We thank Houghton
College for the loan of their
celeste and welcome several
musicians who are new to our
group.
Our
board has planned a special
fund-raiser, Raise
A Howl!
($20) at Rock City Park on
Sunday, October 30.
Amid the tasty
confections of our cup-cake
competition, wine and yummy
appetizers, your ‘spirits’
will be lifted by background
music that evokes the spooky
nature in all of us as you
enjoy the always fabulous
ambience of a visit “on the
rocks.”
Cindy and Dale Smith
have really spruced up their
wonderful site for our fifth
fall party.
Come in costume, if you
dare.
See
you at the Symphony!
John
