The 2015 Strathmore Gala was a huge success! Over 350 musicians were efficiently brought on and off the stage in a seamless operation which showcased 4 orchestras, 2 bands, and 2 choirs. It was a wonderful way to kick off the long weekend. A special thanks go to the 50 parent volunteers who helped make last night run so smoothly.
With Strathmore now as one of PVYO’s regular performing venues, the PVYO families and community can enjoy listening each season to fantastic performances in a venue which highlights and compliments the incredible musical growth which has taken place the last few seasons. A huge thanks go to the PVYO artistic staff, student musicians and their parents, along with the private teachers for helping make the 2015 season a huge success.
Professional DVDs from the Gala are on sale. Details and purchasing info can be found at http://www.tonalvision.com/store/potomac-valley.html
