I have many passions, and music is one of them.? Classical music to be exact.? My roommates in College?thought I was a little off my rocker because I would study to Vivaldi and fall asleep to Chopin (they made me wear headphones).? I would prefer that dates take me to campus orchestra recitals instead of a movie.? The funny thing is, I never had the desire to play an instrument myself, but I sure do love the energy that comes from hearing an orchestra play!? I am grateful to have a daughter who at only 12 years old?is in her 4th year of playing the violin.? It brings me such joy to hear her play.? Needless to say, I am thrilled to share a little more about our very own Colorado Springs Philharmonic with you today.
