The next schedules performance is this Saturday, February 22, at Summer Trace. “The seniors there are delightful and there’s usually a large turnout in the audience. Currently we have four people signed up to play, but more may decide to go during the week,” Lauren Lu said, Vice President of the Share the Music club.
“We are very fortunate and happy to have this opportunity to extend our reach,” Maggie Hite, sponsor of the Share the Music club said.
These performances and the ISSMA events are happening around the same time. Club members are taking advantage of this opportunity and captive audience to practice performing their pieces before going to play before a judge.
“Luckily, the situation is a win-win situation, as seniors in the nursing homes can enjoy music, and club members can gain the performance experience they need,” Lu said.
