Dayton Mandolin Orchestra at Clifton Opera House

Friday, December 2

You might recognize some of these folks. The DMO is heavily populated with Springers.

Clifton Opera House will present the Dayton Mandolin Orchestra (DMO) on Friday, December 2nd at 7:30pm. DMO's program promises to be interesting and varied. It will include Corelli's Christmas Concerto, works by local composers, some traditional holiday favorites, a sleigh ride celebration of Russian winter, and a holiday visit to Hawaii! From baroque to folk - expect the unexpected.

Their program demonstrates the incredible versatility of the mandolin family of instruments. Depending on what the DMO is playing at the moment, you can hear a baroque chamber orchestra, the harps of angels, a Russian balalaika ensemble, or ukuleles at a luau. But throughout the program you will hear and feel the warmth of the Holidays.

The Dayton Mandolin Orchestra (DMO) performs at local concerts, holiday celebrations and other events in the Dayton and Greater Miami Valley area. The orchestra features the members of the mandolin family: Mandolin, Mandola, Octave, Mandocello and Mandobass; and their acoustical cousins, the Guitar and Contrabass, with additional instrumentalists as needed.

The Dayton Mandolin Orchestra, Inc., a 501(c)3 non-profit musical arts organization, relies upon dedicated friends and supporters. Check out their website www.daytonmandolin.net.

The Clifton Opera House is operated by the Village of Clifton, all donations are used for the maintenance of the historic building. Clifton Opera House is located at 5 So. Clay Street, Clifton OH. For information call 937.767-2343.

FYI---That's a TWO year old photo; a bunch of us are no longer in the group and a bunch of new ones are in. I wish they would take a new one for publicity as I don't want to be a part of the group now. Yvonne Wingard
