ProMusica approaches new season with no theme in mind, but exciting plans

By Peter Tonguette / For The Columbus Dispatch

“The ProMusica Chamber Orchestra did not program the concerts in its upcoming season with a single theme, group of composers or time period in mind.

For example, steel-pan player and composer Andy Akiho, who performed with the orchestra last year, was not originally scheduled to return this year.
