Good morning!

We are happy to report that our Kickstarter project is now at $1688--just $312 away from our goal. We are very grateful to the 25 backers who have expressed their support for our projects. We would just like to ask our wonderful backers to forward the link to their friends. I'm sure we can find the remaining $312. Here it is:http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2026565448/luna-nova-a-celebration-of-olivier-messiaen

Have a great weekend and thank you again for you support.

Belvedere Chamber Music Festival

Update #4 · Jun 25, 2012 · comment

The Belvedere Chamber Music Festival was a big success--six concerts in four days, with wonderful, enthusiastic audiences. Recordings will start being added to www.lunanova.org/audio.html within the week.

The Messiaen Quartet for the End of Time was very warmly received with a standing ovation. We will have the recordings shortly and can begin work on the Kickstarter Project if it is funded. 

Thank you so much for your support. Please tell your friends about us!
