     * The colorful display of the Guanajuato Ballet Folklorico during the MAS production never fails to thrill its audience, and last month was no exception. Add to that show the incredible opera singers trained by Harlan Snow, and we had a MAS-double wham-my in December. Check out the recap of the Ballet in my column, “Front Row Center.”
January 13 is the date of the next MAS event, still “Neo Trio” at this printing.

     * Local choir, “Cantantes del Lago,” with intrepid Timothy Welch directing from the harpsichord, teamed up with the Philharmonic Ensamble of Guadalajara to present Handel’s Messiah for the second December in a row. This special event is a benefit for the Red Cross. Music of the spheres, a treasured gift for the community.
