Announcement from the President of the Association 'Friends of the San Giacomo Choir' Spyros Soueref
“My friends,
Unfortunately, circumstances require that our concert—held without interruption for 38 consecutive years—take place this year in the wonderful yet limited-capacity venue of the Museum of Asian Art. This space, under no circumstances, can accommodate the large audience and demand that this concert typically attracts.
Out of full respect for both the venue and the guidance of the Museum’s administration, a limited number of invitations (approximately 100) will be issued, which will be allocated with priority to those who support us in making this effort possible.
Recognising your tremendous interest, it is our intention to repeat the concert immediately after Easter, so that everyone may have the opportunity to attend.
We sincerely thank you for your understanding and your continued support.
