Community is blessed by the dedication of local orchestra
It is rare to find an orchestra that combines beautiful and subtle playing with the cold hard facts of pain lived raw.
Tonight an audience were witness to the first performance of 'on the sorrow of war'.
Or Concerto for cor anglais by Peter Webb with soloist Rachel Tolmie.
Centring on the theme of conflict both in the past with the loss of HMAS Sydney and the after effects of that tragedy.
But also on the very real conflicts that pervade our world everyday around the globe.
The Unley Symphony orchestra is led by the dedicated Peter Webb, who inspires such dedication from all his players.
If you feel inspired to find out what they sound like, too late!
But they will reignite again in 2013 for what one hopes is another stella and inspiring year.
Well done to all including featured sponsor the Goodwood Community bank.

Willunga Christmas Tree Festival
Willunga Christmas Tree Festival
The Christmas Rush - what happened to peace, love and understanding?
Christmas time can be very hectic.
Taking some time to enjoy all the celebrations can wear people out.
Willunga Uniting Church will host many events in the season of advent.
Starting with their 11th annual Christmas tree festival on the 1st and 2nd of December, open from 10am to 4pm each day.
This is an event not to be missed.
Worship on the 2nd of December will be at the special time of 9.30am.
Our festival theme this year is Advent, which collectively includes the themes of Love, Joy, Hope and Peace.
Christmas eve is also a special time of worship for their midnight service, which commences at 11.30pm.
This will be a candlelight service.
Christmas day celebrations and worship continue with worship at 9.30am.
Our church hopes that whatever your celebrations may be, you will take some time out to rest, reflect and enjoy the gift of family, friends and our community.
Thank you to all those who have assisted and nourished our faith family throughout the year.
Prayers were shared, sometimes in words, and songs sung.
People gathered to hear about justice in action in our local community and beyond.
Food was made and sold at markets. Community walks happened in our beautiful and natural surroundings.
Kids sang and played in our celebrations. We are grateful to all who were apart of it all.
Hope your little bit of Christmas is full of all the love, joy, peace and hope that is waiting to be shared.
