Upcoming Durham Concerts

I'm taking part of my lunch break to briefly blog, because I wanted to mention a couple of concerts, one of which is tonight. I also have to say that gazpacho in a glass (from Saladelia, in the Duke Library's pavilion) is the ideal lunchtime blogging food.

• Tonight, October 3rd. the Duke Symphony Orchestra will be having their fall concert at 8pm in Baldwin Auditorium. This free concert, featuring works by Brahms, Mendelssohn and Schumann is an excellent opportunity for parents to expose their kids to live classical music (something I highly encourage).
• The Coalition to Unchain Dogs will be hosting a benefit concert at 5pm on October 13th at Durham Central Park. Tickets are $12 at the door or $10 in advance. Unlike one abhorrent local organization that just sets dogs loose from chains and shelters, the Coalition to Unchain Dogs builds fences for dogs such that they can safely run around in a confined area. Bravo!
