NHSO to Host Free Concert for Kids on Saturday, April 1 at Southern CT State University!
Perry So says, “Our concert presents three breakthrough pieces by three composers… three lonely musicians working hard to carve out a place for themselves in a world skeptical of what they stood for.”
Robert Schumann famously said, “To send light into the darkness of men’s hearts – such is the duty of the artist.”
