If you want to get your audience out of their seats you've got to get the orchestra out of theirs too.

Does your violin know how to dance?
Allegro!!! is an elite string performance ensemble of the Western Springs School of Talent Education and the Naperville Suzuki School. An inventive and eclectic mix of music, dance, and video, Allegro!!! has been dazzling audiences in Chicago and beyond for nearly 20 years. Allegro!!! has performed at countless local events and also participated by invitation in recent performances for the National Suzuki Association of the Americas Biennial Conference in Minneapolis, MN and the American String Teachers Association National Conference in Atlanta, GA.
As a result of their performance at the American String Teacher Association's conference last March, the group was invited by Dean Marshall, Artistic Director of the world renowned phenomenon “Barrage”, to take part in a two week concert tour of China this summer. This trip will be a once in a lifetime opportunity for the students. Allegro!!! will be performing in the largest concert venues in Beijing, Hushou, Hangshou, Ningbo, and Shanghai. In addition to their concert performances, they will have the opportunity to experience Chinese culture and visit many of the country's most famous cultural and historic sites. This year's spring concert on May 11th will serve as benefit to support this upcoming trip.

Boccherini writes quintet music for Castanets and Guitar
Bocherini wrote much more than minuets. What baroque music was all the rage in both the Old & New World that people of every class and nationality wanted to participate? Its the inspiration for this quintet. But if you ask me its for 6. The castanetist is very much a soloist in her own right.
Who were the first people to dance the Fandango in the Old World?
Who were the first people to play this music in the New World?
It makes exciting music for the 4th movement of Bocherini's Quintet G. 448 in D Major played by The Carmina Quartet
