Leslie Stratton, Principle Harpist with the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra and also the Director of Music at Central Presbyterian Church provided an outstanding musical treat with her harp for our August 2017 Luncheon Program. Leslie has performed for us in the past in a number of settings, including duet with Charlie Pagnard and his Trumpet and also directing and playing with Harps of Grace. She has always provided a delightful musical program. She will return in December with Harps of Grace to give us a beautiful Christmas experience.
In the middle of her program, Leslie gave us a quiz about a number of songs that she played as a medley. I think our group did an outstanding job of picking out the song titles. We got all of them! We have a lot of people with good musical ears!
The following short video gives an example of the performance but the quality doesn't do it justice. Fortunately, we also recorded the entire program and the sound for that is better. You can listen to that HERE!
Following our program, we ate a nice luncheon prepared by Lisa and her talented kitchen and dining room team.
Next month, we will enjoy our favorite twins! The Spittin' Image will return to our platform with their stringed instrument music of an entirely different style! Brian and Blain Swabb are identical twins who play, Banjo and Guitar and Harmonica. As I said, their music is a different style. Come prepared to have a lot of laughs and a good time on September 12.
