To commemorate the first concert in the Temperance Colony, award-winning violinist Preston Hawes gave a recital of Romantic music with well-known pianist Deborah Buck. Among principal works performed were compositions of the 1880s by Grieg and Dvorak, in keeping with the era of the Trounce Family in early Saskatoon. A large and enthusiastic audience was delighted to hear Mr. Hawes once again, performing with the pianist with whom he has frequently appeared in Saskatoon. The recital, followed by a reception, took place at Grace-Westminster United Church on the evening of Friday, January 9, 2009.
