## Notes

I was a little surprised to find myself invited to this presentation, but I suppose NCCO made all of their donors welcome, on the theory that it's better to make folks feel included than not! And happily, I was able to carve a bit of space out of my work day to witness the very brief performance by maestro Hope and his accompanist. Three cheers to NCCO for arranging to work with him in the near term: this bodes well for the next few season's programming!
