Kevin,
When you go out to hear a symphony do you prefer the All Volunteer Atlanta Philharmonic or the Central Gwinnett High School Band. The Atlanta Philharmonic is very easy to find, and the venue has superb acoustics, they play at the Korean Community Presbyterian Church, in Duluth Georgia (way out in the suburbs), not even close to Atlanta. Here is a map to their venue. http://www.newatlantaphil.com/direction_kcpc.jpg This is much closer to Snellville than the ASO, and the tickets are much cheaper, but someone I prefer the ASO. wrote in message ups.com...

Kevin, When you go out to hear a symphony do you prefer the All Volunteer Atlanta Philharmonic or the Central Gwinnett High School Band. The Atlanta Philharmonic is very easy to find, and the venue has superb acoustics, they play at the Korean Community Presbyterian Church, in Duluth Georgia (way out in the suburbs), not even close to Atlanta. Here is a map to their venue. http://www.newatlantaphil.com/direction_kcpc.jpg This is much closer to Snellville than the ASO, and the tickets are much cheaper, but someone I prefer the ASO. wrote in message ups.com...

We do have a great symphony, but it is call the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. You should go down and see them some time, they really are good. I don't live in Snellville, but, do you think that Naples is the only place in the U.S. that has concerts? Ever hear of the Atlanta Philharmonic? They are much more well known than Naples. Boating? Yep, lots of that here. Fishing? Some of the best bass fisheries in the U.S. are from 45 minutes to a couple of hours from my house. Oh, and the sun shines here, too, and sets. LMAO! Hooked again! Kevin soiled himself once again. I"m not Kevin, but this proves what an idiot you and John H a http://www.atlantaphilharmonic.org/ We also have the Atlanta Symphony, the Gwinnett Symphony, the Georgia Philharmonic, etc. |

Kevin,
The link you provided was not to the Atlanta Phil. Orchestra but to the NEW Atlanta Phil. Orchestra, a orchestra run by the Koran Community in Duluth, GA. When you were talking about the first class orchestra in Atlanta, are you sure you didn't mean the All Volunteer Gay Orchestra called the Atlanta Philharmonic Orchestra actually in Atlanta? I am really surprised that I didn't know about these two small local orchestras. They do a great job of building a strong sense of community in the Duluth Korean Community and the Atlanta Gay Community. wrote in message oups.com...

The best talent in Georgia play for the ASO and actually get paid for their work. The fact that I didn't know about the church group is of little consequence. Duluth, GA is indeed part of Metro Atlanta |
