We began our evening having an appreciation dinner lovingly prepared by Austin who I helped move into his apartment upon his arrival here.  It was a meal of friendship and goodbyes. 

Then we met other friends for a pre-concert snack and on to Teatro Nuovo for a Brass Concert. A concert of all brass instruments can be described as extremely exciting.  CCM's repertoire varied from beautiful love songs to an audience participatory march that we clapped along to with much enthusiasm.  It was an evening of great friends and exceptional music.  Just what we've come to expect in Spoleto!
