WASHINGTON, Oct. 25 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- CounterPoint, an exciting new chamber orchestra, is making its debut performance at the Pakistan Embassy, 3517 International Court, Washington DC, October 27(th) at 6PM.

"CounterPoint is pleased to offer this concert in support of the flood victims in Pakistan. As a diverse group of American musicians, we are also voicing our unequivocal support of people in need no matter what their religion or ethnicity.
