Concert Tuesday canceled

Hi folks,

Well, no school Tuesday - no concert. We'll look at having a concert the second week of January or sometime before finals week.

Hey, if you're bored, why not look up some classical and/or fun orchestra string stuff on youtube. Here are a few leads:

Sir Colin Davis discusses Handel's Messiah:
