LEISURE
THANK YOU!
My heart is full! Yesterday’s benefit for Ruta Mushi (https://www.facebook.com/casamuseopuertovallarta) was sold out, providing the organization with much-needed funds ($9,000+ MXN) for their ongoing operation. Our dear friend Gina from Whiskey Kitchen (https://www.facebook.com/whiskeykitchenversalles) catered a wonderful reception after my presentation that allowed us to exchange ideas with Ruta Mushi founder, Karla Moreno and to enjoy each other’s company. And of course, hats off to the Joint. Boutique Hotel & Cowork (https://www.facebook.com/jointpv) as they donated their percentage from ticket sales for this important project—100 percent of ticket sales went to Ruta Mushi. Please remember to support these important projects in the future. ❤️

STRINGS ATTACHED: ESSENTIAL VIOLIN CONCERTOS
The violin has been called the instrument that most closely resembles the human voice — capable of singing, crying, soaring, and dazzling with virtuosity. But what makes certain violin concertos stand out as timeless masterpieces? In this music appreciation evening, we’ll journey through ten of the greatest violin concertos ever written. From Beethoven’s noble and expansive Violin Concerto in D, to Tchaikovsky’s fiery and passionate Concerto in D Major, to Barber’s lushly lyrical American treasure — and many gems in between — we’ll discover how composers have used the violin to capture the full spectrum of human expression.

The Life and Music of Celia Cruz — a vibrant, heart-pounding exploration of the Queen of Salsa, her struggles, and her triumphs.
