Let’s get our party on and celebrate a momentous occasion: Winsor Music’s 30th season! We will honor Winsor’s founder Peggy Pearson with celebratory new pieces written by some of Winsor’s favorite composers, invite you to join us in singing new and classic Songs for the Spirit celebrating peace and unity, and raise the roof with a few of everyone’s favorites. Schubert’s Shepherd on the Rock tells the story of love, longing and jubilation through the voice of a shepherd calling across the mountains. Viola powerhouse Marcus Thompson will join Gabby Díaz as soloist for Bach’s jubilant Brandenburg Concerto No.6. We’re looking forward to spending this joyful evening with you!
