OBSERVATIONS OF THIS EVENINGS CONCERT.

FIRST....WHAT JOY TO VISIT THE UNLV TICKET OFFICE WITH ITS EFFICIENT PERSONABLE HELPFUL ADMINISTRATION....ESPECIALLY AFTER THIS WEEKS TRAJEDY AT THE SMITH CENTER.

WHO IS IN CHARGE THERE ?

ANYWAY...... ALWAYS A PLEASANT STOP AT THE TICKET OFFICE....THEY ARE CONSUMER FRIENDLY

COBO....

3 MINUTES LATE...NICE INTRODUCTION...HE WAS A SUBSTITUE FOR A VENEZULAN PLAYER WHICH COULD NOT GET A VISA OUT OF HIS COUNTRY....WE GOT AN UPGRADE ON THE SUBSTITUE.

THE CONCERT IN DOC RANDO HALL IN FRONT OF THE ORGAN....FANTASTIC ACQUISTICS.

COBO'S PHOTO ON THE COVER OF THE PROGRAM MUST HAVE BEEN HIS HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION PICTURE...A BEAUTIFUL FULL HEAD OF BLACK HAIR WITH MUSTACHE...BRIGHT YOUNG VIBRANT......NOT TONIGHT...COBO...60ISH...GLASSES...LITTLE HAIR AND IT WAS WHITE LIKE MINE....MEANS NOTHING ONLY IT LOOKED LIKE TWO DIFFERENT GUYS.

THE MUSIC FINALE HERE FOR UNLVS CLASSICAL GUITAR 7TH SEASON....YES.

IT WAS GREAT AND SO WAS COBO...SOME PLAY BY PLAY BETWEEN PIECES WHICH OF COURSE IS FIRST CLASS AND HELPFUL TO MUSIC STUDENTS SUCH AS I....THANK YOU.

FIVE PIECES BEFORE INTERMISSION....FIVE AFTER....17 MINUTES IN THE MIDDLE AND ON THE ROAD AT 946....A LOVELY EVENING.

NEXT YEARS CLASSICAL GUITAR SEASON ANNOUNCED AT UNLV....I AM COMING BACK FOR MORE.

THOSE WHO DO NOT GO MISS SOME OF LIFES TREASURES...

THIS GUY WAS WORLD CLASS OF COURSE AND THE MUSIC SO SOFT AND DELICATE WITH EMOTIONAL PLAYING SKILLS...YES.

I PICTURE THE GUITAR WITH LENNON-MCCARTNEY....THE BEST EVER OF COURSE BUT THIS IS SPECIAL TOO WITH ITS COMPOSITION...ITS HISTORY AND ITS EXECUTION.

COBO FROM COLUMBIA WITH AN ELITE BACKGROUND AND FAMILY HISTORY DID NOT TAKE HIS POSITION IN SOCIETY AS AN ELITEST FOR GRANITE...HE CREATED AND PRODUCED.

THANK YOU.
