Check your schedules: have you included the Santa Fe Symphony or The Santa Fe/Aspen Ballet?
So you have done really well this summer with all the rain, great events, more rain, free concerts, and big name performers. You may have even listened to a few Native American singers. Have you cashed in on your bonus? “Bonus? What’s she talkin about?”
What is a summer without going to a symphony? (Well maybe the Opera will do, but) Go to your favorite site or google:get classical. It’s good for your bones. And the ballet (flamingo dancing is terrici too, the Lodge at Santa offers many performances.

Alas go to the alibi in print or www.alibi.com
to find the ballet schedule. The site did not show up. Or try Sun Monthly a great magazine, but I couldn’t find their website either. Or remember Albuquerque Arts, or Five magazine. Tune up the violins….
Yes the ballet and the symphony are treats and bonuses. More later…Mary
