In a letter to audience members, Dr. William Morse writes: "The "Enchanted Garden" movement from the Mother Goose Suite, by Maurice Ravel, was one of the many pieces considered for a virtual performance. There are many things to consider when attempting a project of this nature. First and foremost: is it a musically rewarding piece worthy of a large time commitment? Also very important, are musicians enjoying the practice and preparation of their video recording that they will submit? The most important result is the enjoyment of participating in the project. It is meant to bring pleasure, to be fun, and also to be musically rewarding, and something for which we will all to be proud. Please enjoy!
