A Surprise Birthday Gift from the Consulate General of Mexico

Ludwig Barragan presents the CD collection to KMFA President/General Manager, Joan Kobayashi

KMFA received a surprise birthday gift from the Consulate General of Mexico today!

Ludwig Barragan visited the KMFA Studios on behalf of Consul General Rosalba Ojeda, and he arrived bearing gifts! It was a collection of CDs featuring Mexican classical composers, contemporary and past, created by the Mexico National Foundation for the Arts in partnership with the Miguel Aleman Foundation.

Mr. Barragan’s timing was great: Maestro Peter Bay of the Austin Symphony was here as well (he was on the air for our Birthday Pledge Drive).  Maestro Bay knows the Consul General well, as she is a great fan of the Austin Symphony.

Dianne Donovan, Ludwig Barragan, and Maestro Peter Bay

We are pretty excited about the CD collection, and can’t wait to really sit down and enjoy it after the Pledge Drive is over… it will be a wonderful addition to the KMFA CD library!
