Many thanks to everyone who played their part in our presentation of The Notebooks of Leonardo da Vinci by adopting an instrument in the orchestra. We’ll present the regional premiere of this spectacular work composed by Jocelyn Hagen on Saturday, March 4 at 7:30 pm in the University of West Florida’s Center for Fine and Performing Arts.
