The Board of Directors of The Valley Concert Society extends to you all a warm greeting for the
Christmas season and wishes for you much joy as you share the days of celebration with those
who are near and important to you.
These thoughts do not come as glibly as they might have ordinarily. We are not able to see as
many of those who are dear to us as we might like, and many of us have suffered loss—the loss
of people we have loved, the loss of livelihoods, and the loss of things we owned.
Nevertheless, in these challenging times, we can find meaning in what remains to us, value in
what has become ever more precious, and a defiant hope that persists stubbornly.
While the shared joy of live music has become rare, we still find our spirits lifted by the recorded
and broadcast music that is all around us. And we do look forward to more live concerts. The
next scheduled event for The Valley Concert Society will be a performance by Duo Concertante,
Canada’s premiere violin-piano duo, on Friday, February 11, 2022. Tickets are on sale now at
www.valleyconcertsociety.com .
The society welcomes donations from those who wish to support the musical arts in our
community. Gifts are tax-deductible and will be receipted. You can donate online at the same
website.
May your days be adorned with the music that evokes rich memories and that lifts your spirits to
soar above the challenges of the moment.
John Wiebe
President
The Valley Concert Society
