The Kennett Symphony of Chester County (KSCC) announced last September that Maestra Mary Woodmansee Green will retire as Music Director and Conductor of the KSCC at the close of our 2012-2013 season on August 31, 2013. We have enjoyed celebrating Maestra Green’s 25th Anniversary season all year long, and we know that our upcoming concert, Gershwin at the Gardens, on Saturday, August 10, 7:30pm, at Longwood Gardens, will be a special evening for Maestra Green, our Symphony, and our community.
