This past weekend we had the honor of performing for and celebrating our favorite audience, the veterans at the Charlotte Hall Veterans Home.

We would like to take a moment to celebrate and thank our veterans for their service to our country.

Thank you for your service!

No big deal, he posted of an impromptu performance with his students in front of the DC Mayor this morning...

No, it's a HUGE deal when that performance leads to the DC Mayor Bowser naming our very own Assistant Conductor, Christopher O. J. Alberts, as Washington DC's Teacher of the Year!

Congratulations Chris! We are so very proud of you and truly honored that you wave your arms in front of us in your spare time! Whether we pay attention to the waving is a different story.
