IBLA Makes Encore Visit to Hot Springs

Luigi Gordano is one of the international IBLA musicians that will perform in Hot Springs on May 7.

The winners of the IBLA International Music Competition (www.ibla.org) will visit Hot Springs and perform at Grand Avenue United Methodist Church, 841 Quapaw Avenue, at 7 PM on Saturday, May 7. The performance will be free and all are invited to attend this rare opportunity to enjoy the performance of such a talented group of international musicians.

Sherman Banks, Honorary Consul General of Ghana and former President of Sister Cities International, who works with IBLA to coordinate their tour, reached out to Hot Springs because of the city’s sister city connection. During their international tour, these outstanding competition winners will be visiting only Tokyo, Radford University (Virginia), Carnegie Hall (New York), and Ragusa Ibla (Sicily). Obviously, this is an outstanding international honor for Hot Springs, Arkansas.
