Fosca
of course, it may be that no one cares. Once again... the Mandarins are
NOT performing "Heaven and Earth - Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings".
That is for our WINTERGUARD. That's WINTERGUARD. :) The corps is
performing selections by composers Mark Mancina and Patrick Doyle.
Thanks and hopefully this fourth attempt will go through...
Mike :)
