Concert Review 

“The very cold weather swirling around outside the building did not keep a full audience from attending the concert of music from the Americas. The genuine warmth of their reception of the music certainly kept body and weather in fine fettle, as did the performances of this fascinating concert” – James Palmer, Musical Opinion
