Mirabilis Newsletter — February 2026 Update
UPDATE
Master Classes
Many apologies for the info in the master classes in the main February Newsletter. My intention was to move the master class times to start at 4:30, 5:30, and 6:30 to allow more breathing room for students which extra-curriculars and those who have to travel a bit.
And the Adult Master Class will meet on TUESDAY, Feb. 24th. (Unfortunately I cut a pasted from a previous newsletter and didn’t make the correct changes.)
So here is the actual master class schedule for next week!

Mirabilis Mystery Tour to Hill Country Luthier Michael Fontenot
