b'DEAR FRIENDS,I grew up and began my career as a violinist in South Africa, and became well acquainted with Buskaid and the extraordinary talent of its musicians. Their musicianship, versatility, and enthusiasm for their art is inspirational. The Princeton Symphony Orchestra has been developing a relationship with the organization ever since a group of trustees, including composer Julian Grant, and I visited the Buskaid Music School in Soweto in 2019. Julian Grants 2014 composition Sanchos Dance-Mix, commissioned for Buskaid, is included on the first concert in our series. We couldnt be prouder to present BuskaidA Musical Miracle to you and fellow music lovers throughout the world. Thank you for joining us today!Best wishes to all,Marc UysPSO Executive DirectorPSO Executive Director Marc Uyc and composer Julian Grant visiting with Buskaid Founder Rosemary Nalden and Buskaids cello and bass teacher Sonja Bass in Soweto, August 2019. buskaid.org.za/ 3'
