Hello!

If any TubeNet folks would like to have the rare opportunity to hear a concert featuring solo cimbasso, please come out to Kean University in Union, NJ on the afternoon of Nov 1st!

I'd be happy to offer a complementary ticket to any TubeNetter. Send me an email, and I'll make arrangements for your ticket.

Kean University has a beautiful new concert hall, and we will be playing some great music. All of the music has been arranged for chamber ensemble, which includes strings, piano, clarinet and guitar.

If you have an Italian grandmother, bring her along, she'll love it! It should be an enjoyable afternoon.

-Andy

Be part of this rare event and enjoy some well-known, timeless love songs and romantic opera classics from Italy
