Symphony Classics 2011/12

Ambassador

“…Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony sent me straight to the thesaurus for more options to ‘enthusiasm.’ They include eagerness, fervor, passion, gusto, zeal, zest, keenness, excitement, fire. All will do.
Vitality, drive, vivacity, dash, vim, gusto, brio, dynamism, verve and spirit are other suitable synonyms. You get the point.”

–The LA Times, October 30, 2011

Ambassador Auditorium
131 S. St. John Ave. Pasadena CA, 91105
Concerts take place at 2pm and 8pm. Saturdays.
