Winter Concert 2007

I am very proud of everyone's performance on the recent concert. The level of performance was the best that I have heard in my three years here at Mather. I admire your dedication, focus and commitment. I am most pleased by the turnout of students. We had over 95 percent attendance by our Mather Musicians.

I am also happy to hear from folks in the crowd that our students were generally a good audience. As you know, it is very important for us to support our colleagues by not only attending their performances, but also by listening while they play.

We have two more performances this year. Now that you have some experience performing in a large group, I am looking forward to your hard work and hearing even more improvement when we return from winter break!
