Please keep these dates blocked off on your family calendars! “This will be our reply... to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.”- Leonard Bernstein As musicians, we have a unique skill set that is in demand, particularly in times of adversity. In the face of uncertainty, one constant is the multitude of gifts that we bring to the world through our music making. Joy, hope, beauty, healing — music brings all of these and more into our world. We may not know what the season has in store for us, but I do know that we will have an incredible year ahead of us because of the people and the music to come. We are truly looking forward to making the world a better place with you/your students through music! Please do not hesitate to reach out with additional questions. Welcome to our 2020-21 Music Year! |
