Cynthia's violin is beautiful. Her father is a trustee on the Cape Symphony Orchestra board, so we know her work very well and it's beautiful.

A beautiful ball skirt with a blouse with full sleeves can be beautiful, but for a cape, you need a certain amount of swagger to pull it off. If you are that confident person, then you'll look great in it.

You can't play a symphony alone, it takes an orchestra to play it.

My father understood the orchestra so well that he never overwrote anything. He always got the most he could from the least amount of writing.

It never really sounds the same. It's sort of like a good symphony orchestra playing a Mozart symphony. You can play it and sit on your ass and nothing happens, or you can play it and make it feel fresh. And that's what this band does.

The director is a bit analogous to the conductor of a symphony orchestra. It's a collaborative adventure.
