Imagine an evening at the new, state of the art College of The Bahamas
Performing Arts Centre when the lights are dimmed and the conductor strikes up
The Bahamas National Symphony Orchestra. It is an opportunity not to be missed.

backed by the full Bahamas Symphony Orchestra performing music written and
composed for that very evening.
Recently the apprentice musicians travelled to Florida to attend the Suzuki
Violin Association apprentice training with their counterparts from across the
State of Florida. The training was described by well-known composer and BNSO
Treasurer Donaldson as, “An opportunity of a lifetime for our apprentice
musicians to learn and interact with musicians under the direction of Mr. Martin
Goldman, president of the Suzuki Violin Association. The training in March
demonstrated the talents and high quality of performance of our apprentice
musicians for who all proceeds of the concert will be earmarked.”
Conductor Douglas Turnquest expressed his appreciation for the concert’s
corporate sponsors;
