Dec. 21, 2015 saw this year’s last get-together of the Klánovice section of the Harmonie Foundation Orchestra, attended by some of the parents and siblings of the young musicians. School’s headmaster Mr. Černý and his deputy Mrs. Jolana Fuchsová also came to see and hear us. But yesterday’s perfromance was slightly different… we were saying good-bye to the just ending year…
