Thanks to all of you who came to the Benefit Concert at St. Luke's Chapel a few weeks ago. It was truly a celebration of all the work that many, many people have put in during this first year of Kidzymphony, and a show of vision and commitment from everybody involved.The concert began with the Kidzymphony Orchestra, followed by magnificent soprano Janai Brugger, myself on the fiddle, and finally the first appearance of the Kidzymphony Community Orchestra, an energetic cross-generation group made of Kidzymphony parents, collaborators, teachers and friends. Charleston Symphony concertmaster Yuriy Bekker and I played the solo parts with the orchestra in Vivaldi's Concerto for Two Violins in A Minor.
This was a memorable time for everybody in the audience and on stage, which was proven by Shamyra's words "I wish we could do it all over again!" Thanks to all who made this possible!
