Praise for a Sold-Out Moonlight
On Sunday, January 22, the same night Giants punched their ticket to the Superbowl, One World Symphony’s Moonlight program was sold out. Audience letters, photos, and a review tell the story:
“Some selections from Peter Grimes, including Four Sea Interludes, concluded the mesmerizing evening. The third interlude, Moonlight, was beyond moving. Its subtle brooding had a transformative power not unlike one’s first glimpse of moonlight on the ocean. Truly profound…!” — Composers of Sibelius

Full House: Benefit Concert for Holy Apostles Soup Kitchen
During the busiest week for musicians and audiences and with two weeks of preparation, One World Symphony gave a benefit concert for Holy Apostles Soup Kitchen to a full house, performing Beethoven’s Pastoral Symphony and audience sings-alongs Baby It’s Cold Outside and John Lennon’s Happy Xmas.

I was really moved by the Beethoven at the holiday benefit. In the first movement, the gentle clarity with which each instrumental voice would lift the melody and then be woven with another created a world of sound that boggled us with Beethoven’s genius. Thank you.
