Dynamic Music Partners Lolita Ritmanis, Michael McCuistion & Kristopher Carter attended both orchestra/choir rehearsals and a gala concert featuring their works at PlayFest in Ubeda, Spain. Between rehearsals and the concert they gave a local television interview, were guests on a panel honoring their mentor Shirley Walker (also featuring orchestrator Larry Rench and Shirley’s son Colin Walker and his family). The concert that evening was performed by the Master Simphony Orchestra (conductor/director – Richard Casero) and the Coro Ziryab (director – Javier Sáenz) and opened with a suite of Shirley Walker’s music from “Batman: Mask Of The Phantasm.” Following that, the enthusiastic audience enjoyed not only the planned program but also encores of Lolita, Michael and Kristopher’s music:
