Our dear friend Dr. Hubert Bird has been commissioned to compose a choral composition for Joplin, MO; in honor of those whose lives were lost in the tornado.  Dr. Bird will be attending the Formal

Christmas party this year and we will be privileged to have him share how he came about with his composition.

This year's Christmas party will be a little different from before: if you or your loved-one was ever a student of mine come join us  for the party and or if you are involved in music in our community, please, join us.

It will be at the Hanke's home on December 22nd starting at 5:00 p.m..  Please RSVP by November 15th and bring your instrument, song, story to share.
