Pro Musica

"Without reference to any religious text or image, music can speak of the ineffable things of God". Fr. Mark Brown

We are in San Miguel de Allende during the "Pro Musica" International Concert Series season.  Their mission is to bring world class classical music to San Miguel de Allende. They also do an opera each season. Last night was violinist, Andrew Sords and pianist/accompanist Tim Durkovic. Their program was wonderful - Elgar, WA Mozart, Bartok, Brahams, Chopin ... a full concert with two encores. The venue is St. Paul's Episcopal Church.

Pro Musica exists because of loyal member patrons, mostly ex-pats, and it's seasonal subscriptions. Their season is 6 months - widely varied in performances.
Pro Musica is devoted to educational outreach in the local area. They teach violin classes in a local boys' orphanage. This year, they have extended their educational mission to teaching classical music instruments to students at the secondary level and to form  a chamber orchestra at the secondary level out of the students from their Rhythm, Rhyme and Reason elementary program which teaches the basics of world music to boys and girls in five elementary schools in and around San Miguel.
Throughout San Miguel de Allende, we find the hands and dollars of the "gringo" population, bettering the community.
