Hector Olivera is scheduled to perform in concert at Grace Cathedral in San
Francisco Sunday, May 16 at 3 pm.  The concert is listed at:
http://www.ministriesofgrace.org/concerts/

It might seem early to mention a concert in May, but a recent post to this
list made me think otherwise.  The post was in response to comments about
the extremely light turnout for a recent concert at Grace by a bright, young
artist.  The gist of the comment was that we (meaning the organ community)
could be better coordinated when planning concerts so as to avoid conflicts
whenever possible.  So, keep the date for Hector?s concert in mind!

The other thing I wanted to mention is that Hector?s manager and good friend
of mine, Tom White, has told me Grace has been high on Hector?s ?wish list?
for years.  I last saw Hector this Fall, and when the subject of Grace came
up, I could see his face light up ? and for those who know Hector up close
and in person, that is an unmistakable look!

I hope that Hector?s concert draws the large audience it surely will deserve
and would love to see the local organ community rally in support.
