Greetings,
I wish to introduce myself and say how excited and honored I am to join the St. Ambrose University Community Symphony Orchestra! My name is Kira Horel, and I am taking over Christopher Fashun's position as music director. Having worked closely with Christopher last year, I know you were in great hands and I hope to continue his tradition of a strong work ethic. I truly enjoyed your final concert in the Spring; the Dvorak Symphony no. 8 was well played with great musicality. Congratulations! I look forward to meeting you and having a fun and successful season!
All my best,
Kira
