Mark Hierholzer, local pianist, composer and choral director will be giving a concert of his own works on Friday, July 15 at 7:30 PM at St. Joseph’s Halle, 212 W. San Antonio Street in Fredericksburg.

We just returned from New York City where we saw three Broadway shows plus the Rockettes at Radio City Music Hall. We walked away smiling after each show, but, not any more satisfied than after a concert at the Odeon theater in Mason, Texas.

Ticket prices for shows we saw were between $150 to $225 per person.
