TOTALLY SHAMELESS REQUEST
My new orchestra is lucky enough to have our inaugural performance be the opening night of the SIFF Festival at McCaw Hall. We're actually only playing for about 10 minutes total before the film starts.
To pay for our meager wages (basically minimum wage), funds need to be raised through Kickstarter.
If you fund this project there are many cool rewards at each level. Go here to read about the whole project and about the composer, Charles-Henri Avelange.
Thanks!

Nothing to do on a rainy Seattle Sunday? See a great vocal music show and test your pop music trivia knowledge at the Broadway Performance Center! Teen singers VocalPoint! Seattle perform in "Pop Quiz" at 2:30 p.m. And if you miss this afternoon's show, there are four more -- next Thursday-Sunday.

Touron is a nougat of Arabic origin made with almonds and honey or sugar, without which it would just not be Christmas in Spain.

The Edmonds Arts Festival is this weekend (June 15-17). My favorite part is the large display of children's art work (elementary to high school). Amazing talent in the young ones!
PS I had two photos selected for the Photography exhibit!

Need a break from all the political ads? Want a great price on student tickets? Do you need a good excuse for a nice walk around the UW campus in the gorgeous fall color? Then we have the solution. Our concert begins at 3:00 PM today at Meany Hall. The music is some of the most enjoyable wind symphony music ever written, conducted by the one and only Larry Gookin. Free parking in the Meany garage!
$5 student tickets
No intermission (so a shorter concert)
Tickets at the door. But here is all the info:

Feeling like you need a little culture this weekend. My orchestra is putting on a concert with two great pieces and one nice overture. If you love the cello, the Dvořák Cello Concerto is an incredibly beautiful and exciting work. If you love excitement and astronomy then the Planets by Holst will do it for you as there will be a big visual presentation along with an extra large orchestra.
The Lake Washington Symphony Orchestra, Michael Miropolsky Music Director, presents “The Planets” on Sunday, November 2 at 3:00 PM.
- Felix Mendelssohn - Ruy Blas, Op. 95: Overture
- Antonín Dvořák- Cello Concerto in B minor, Op. 104 featuring Eric Han
- Gustav Holst - The Planets w/the Westminster Chapel Women’s Chorus and visual presentation
Enjoy a pre-concert chat led by KING-FM's Dave Beck at 2:00 pm.

Mendelsshon's Violin Concerto with the Seattle Symphony last Sunday had a delightfully pleasant surprise. The violin performance by Augustin Dadelich included richness to the tones provided by the Stradivarius violin that he plays on. Our seats were only 12 ft away from the gorgeous notes flowing from his fingers. The instrument itself is called the "Ex-Kiesewetter" Stradivarius made in 1723. If you have the opportunity in the future treat your ears to the beautiful sounds offered by a Stradivarius.

I did when I went up and saw Mayuko Kamio perform the Tchaikovsy Violin Concerto. (She's playing a 1727 Stradivarius that formerly belonged to Joseph Joachim.)
How the hell did I miss the Mendelssohn Concerto? I thought I was on their mailing list!
(* the 1958 Stern/Ormandy recording is the one I grew up with.)
