April 18, 2013 Musicale

PARTNERS hit a high C!

The spring musicale on April 18 at the home of the Bulgarian Ambassador, Madame Elena Poptodorova, was remarkable–and filled to capacity!

We are very grateful to Ambassador Poptodorova for her warm and gracious hospitality.  She paid PARTNERS a great honor by inviting us to come back for another musicale this fall.  We have a date already—Friday, September 27!
