Nursing home Christmas Edition

Today I took the orchestra over to the nursing home. I wasn’t able to get any pictures of the group playing since I was playing and conducting with them, but here at least is a picture of the chairs awaiting an audience:

Notice the festive snowflakes on the windows.

A violinist’s mom and grandmother came to watch, so hopefully I will be able to get a few of their pictures.

We played “This Is the Feast,” “Evening Prayer from Hansel & Gretel,” Corelli’s ‘Pastorale’ movement of his “Christmas Concerto,” and several Christmas carols.

Gustav will continue to announce the rehearsals for the next 2 weeks until our Christmas concert on December 13!

Here is Gustav in all his colorful array. Aren't you jealous of his festive garb?
