Ruby in New Bedford

On February 9th, 35 of us from Community MusicWorks went by bus to New Bedford. There we saw the Symphony Orchestra. They played Post Cards of the Americas. A female narrator, dressed in purple, spoke for the art. The largest instruments were the beautiful wooden bass guitars. I was most impressed by the elegant harp and its graceful sound.

Jesse Holstein played fantastic! When he got on stage everyone clapped. I was very excited to see him. I realized that he had a bigger part in the performance than I had thought. I believe that he was the best violin player. I look forward to seeing him play again. The music made me feel grateful to be there. Thank you.
