Wine & Cheese
Festival, Friday, October 17, 2008
A delightful evening event,
from 7 to 9:30 p.m., at Richards, 359 Greenwich Avenue, supports
the Orchestra's Young People’s
Concerts for students in Greenwich public and independent
schools and an annual competition to recognize instrumental
musicians throughout Fairfield County schools.
The Festival features wine
selections by Terry Rogers of Horseneck Wine & Liquor, paired
with an array of gourmet cheeses and passed delicacies, and
background music of soft jazz performed by Larry Spivack’s
''Lucky 37'' Jazz Quartet. (Larry, the percussionist of the
Greenwich Symphony Orchestra, is donating
his skill on the vibraphone to benefit the Young People’s
Concert Series.)
Cost: $100 per person (partly
tax-deductible), plus opportunities to provide additional
support, including a silent auction of excellent wine values and
related items, as well as to buy wines from among the more than
40 poured with a portion of the price going to the Symphony
Orchestra.
