Seeking Strings

I just became aware of a choir scheduled to perform Bach's Christ Lag in Todesbanden and Puccini's Messe di Gloria this Sunday evening. They're looking for violins, violas and cellos.

Rehearsals are tonight (Monday), Tuesday and Friday, but the group seems to be flexible on rehearsal demands. Contact me for more information if you're interested.
