Dear Editor:

What a special time was enjoyed when the DaPonte String Quartet performed its first concert of the season at St. Columba's Episcopal Church in Boothbay Harbor on Saturday, Oct. 25. In case you missed it, the quartet's next concert will be a Christmas concert at St. Columba's on Dec. 13 at 7 p.m.

The DaPonte String Quartet has been rated the best of its kind in the state of Maine by Down East magazine and Saturday's concert lived up to this rating. We are fortunate to have this talent available to us in this community, and people are encouraged to take advantage of it. Spread the word!
