Scotia Bank Symphony with the Bahamas Music Conservatory
|
Nassau, Bahamas - The delightful sounds
of orchestral music filled the banking halls of the new Scotiabank Cable
Beach branch as customers and staff were treated to a recital by the Scotiabank
Symphony. This youth orchestra is sponsored by Scotiabank Bahamas and is
comprised of students of The Bahamas Music Conservatory. Ranging in ages
from 2 1/2 to 17, the young musicians study classical musical instruments
including the violin, viola, cello, clarinet, French horn and double bass
under the directorship of JoAnne Connaughton.
Leah R. Davis, Scotiabank’s Senior Manager
of Marketing & PR, explained that they have been supporting the Bahamas
Music Conservatory for 3 years. “Our partnership with the BMC is an integral
part of the Bank’s Bright Future program; we recognize the social, personal
and academic benefits of playing orchestral musical instruments and are
pleased to be creating opportunities for young Bahamians to learn.”
