When last night's concert (featuring Mary McCaslin and Geoff Bartley) started, the future of the series in Somerville was in doubt, the reason being the venue was only to be heated Sunday mornings for services.
The world economy has smiled down on the series. At intermission I spoke with the minister, who, due to a mild November and lower heating fuel costs, has agreed to let me continue to produce concerts through the Winter!
The next Notlob concert will be Saturday, December 13. I cannot yet reveal the artist, but he is local, highly regarded and a Notlob alumni, and is well-suited for the holiday season.
Please stay tuned for details.
Keep your lamp trimmed and burning!
