2009-10
We have gotten off
to a late start this year. But I hope it was worth the wait, because we
have a fantastic year in the offering. We have had some trouble finding a
good hall for our concerts and then were some delays in confirming our November
concert. But here is our year, and it starts on November 4, so mark your
calendars! 1. Rafael
Aguirre Wednesday, Nov. 4th, 2009 Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of
Raleigh - 8:00 pm Rafael is the winner of the 2007 Francisco Tarrega
Competition. He will be
performing his first concert of his current U.S. tour for the TGS. Rafael is

Joaquin Clerch in Dusseldorf, Germany. How's that for multicultural? Check out
