THE MESSENGER Newsletter of the Kossuth Club April-May 2009. Vol. 15. No. 4-5. Mandolin Magic. The March 28 benefit concert with the Sarasota Mandolin Orchestra and chanteuse Masi was an unqualified success. The Glenridge auditorium was jam packed with an enthusiastic audience and we had to find extra seating for the late comers. Kossuth Club Board members Joe Vegliante and Cathy Fenyves Vegliante were instrumental in securing the cooperation with the orchestra and for selling advertisements in the program booklet to defray the costs. They also performed with the orchestra. Elizabeth Fenyves Olajos did double duty doing the graphic design and layout for the program book, and filming the concert for a television production. Éva Bognár Kisvarsányi was the editor of the book and greeted the audience. Our special guest, Annamária Eisler, Masi donated her time and her art to the proceedings and performed three songs with the able accordion accompaniment of David Martin. We hope to see her back in Sarasota! Future Programs. Two of our upcoming programs deal with health and different aspects of medicine.
