Noted local cellist Joseph Kuipers played selections of classical and contemporary music as he talked to CFB Rotary on Thursday, April 8, about Texas Cellos, a cello choir aimed at helping the next generation of Texans to learn great music in an inspiring environment. Kuipers invited all Club members to Music@Mill, a new music festival in McKinney, April 23-24, highlighting a wide variety of music and other activities.
Kuipers is shown above at center with Rotary Communication Director Bill Lovell and Program Director John Chollampel. Kuipers brought with him his 300-year-old cello, crafted by the famed 17th-century Venetian violin maker, Francesco Gobetti.
