Sixteen.
Dear Ones,
I missed you terribly last night- 25 violins!! Yes, and 10 violas, and was it 8, or 9 cellos? Four bassoons! You know how beautiful bassoons and cellos are (just to say the words! Bassoon. Cello.), and these played a samba inspired "spectacular" of South American composed pieces. I know you were busy elsewhere, so I send you an electronic shadow to give some sense of the shimmering reverberations of the Bahia Youth Orchestra performance.
I began this missive with another delightful Brazillian band; Funk Como le Gusta. Yes, it is just how you like it, and I hope you will explore more of their music.
