Before our meeting Kingsville Symphony Orchestra President, Therese Crocker, announces the new KSO season and tells us that those who purchase season tickets at our meeting will get a discount. We get to meet KSO's new resident conductor, Veronica Salinas.

For our program we enjoy a lecture/slideshow given by James Tryer
about some of the early mechanical devices that produced music.

Some of the slides we saw. An ornate 18th century singing bird music box/clock. An 18th century Pallard music box, closed and open. An 18th century large Haydn musical clock and a 19th century upright Symphonion. A Steinway Welte player piano (open). A 20th century Seeburg player piano, closed and open.
