Sunday afternoon and Pat and I attended a Cello concert with several singers presenting Bach and Mozart at her church. These are all local artists and the event was a fund raiser for a group providing water to a series of Honduras villages.
Many years ago we might go to Roy Thompson hall in Toronto on a Sunday for classical enlightenment. Today’s show was not quite as professional but way beyond what you would expect from local people. The Cellist was wonderful but of course brought up and trained in Korea but now lives here. What Canadian kid spends years learning to play the Cello?
I remember as a kid going to events where local musicians and singers presented. My sister was a wonderful singer and I attended many of the presentations because she was one of the artists.
Along came TV and afternoon football and hockey and who goes out for local cultural events any more? Not a bad day.
