Coffee with Kaizer... Musical happenings for the week of May 6...

Here is Laraine Kaiser's list of musical happenings for the week.

Have a great and culturally filled week everyone!

This list focuses on Classical, 'Ethnic,' and some popular genres such as jazz/rock/country played on un-conventional instruments such as violin/bagpipes/flute/etc. in other words, the Unusual/Under-represented
instrumental, vocal, visual, dance and other performance feel free to send me info on your event if it may fit into one of these categories

I'm sorry to leave out the more popular genres such as Broadway, Jazz, Choral, Rock, Country performances. During the slower summer months I try to include more of these thanks for supporting local musicians by just showing up! We really appreciate it!! - LK
