Harmonica Jam

This program from the Rockford IL Symphony ( @RkfdSymphony ) is really cool, and an innovative way to promote classical music:

HARMONICA JAM!
Join Robert Bonfiglio and the RSO Staff for a special Harmonica Jam at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, January 15 at Cliffbreakers. Cost is $10 in advance and $15 at the door. The first 50 guests receive a FREE Harmonica. To make your reservation, call the RSO at 815.965.0049 or Click here.

Of course, Robert Bonfiglio is one of Villa-Lobos's greatest advocates. He's played the Harmonica Concerto many, many times around the world, and will do so again on Saturday the 16th with Steven Larsen conducting the Rockford SO. Incidentally, the programme for the rest of that concert looks really interesting! The concert notes are at the RSO site.

So get out there and pick up that harmonica!
