Meccasnismi d'Arte

A huge congratulations to The Christchurch Youth Orchestra for their performance. What an amazing night featuring the world premiere of Dr Patrick Shepherd's work Meccasnismi d'Arte. It was not only an amazing piece, but we were mesmerized by the cello soloist Ashley Brown. We thank Dr Helen Renaud for conducting, leading and mentoring fine musicians. Congratulations to all those who made this significant concert such a success.

 

          Music has a lot of power. It can uplift your consciousness. 

It is a salve for all emotional wounds and is a powerful tool of connection.
