It was two concerts in one on January 30, 2017 as the Stone Woodwind Quintet performed "Music Tells the Story" for the first part of their program and "Music Makes it Happen" after intermission. The joint was jumpin' on February 27, 2017 as woodwind virtuoso Gary Gould and the CSU Fullerton Jazz Orchestra brought back the sounds of all the big bands in a Salute to Swing. The virtuosic Arioso! Duo's "Spring Serenade" on flute and harp was a delight to our audience on March 27, 2017. Our season came to a wonderful close on May 15, 2017 as Luisa Cartagena performed on the flute and Tom Mueller played the church's historic Austin Organ.  The audience had a closeup view of his hands and feet.
