All,

David Chamberlain has asked me to pass along the following invitation. What a great opportunity to hear Alan along with a truly first-class brass ensemble!

Enjoy!

Hora Decima has been hailed by The American Record Guide as a "superb ensemble...most impressive and enjoyable."

performing music that is rarely heard.
