IT was not your normal night at a bar in Southport, at Leo's Bar, on Nevill Street, 2 symphonic orchestra members from Sicily took to the stage to perform. Returning to Liverpool area, after performing at Edinburgh Festival Fringe, both virtuoso guitarist David Sciacca and gifted violinist Marianatalia Ruscica delivered a fantastic set. Also for those who attended, it came with a fantastic 3 course dinner! "We had a very refreshing night at Leo's Bar! We would like to thank both of them for putting on an amazing show. This was very relaxing and highly entertaining event. Also the food was extremely good..." said staff from The Captain's Quarters Guest House House, who had booked tickets specially to see the 2 perform. These are a few snaps and we will add some video soon to our Facebook Page from the event.
