Porch Concert #MusicConnectsUs


Music connects us.
During times of celebration & times of solemnity.
During times of tradition & times of loss.
During times of peace & times of stress.
During times of love & times of fear.
During times of joy & times of sadness
During times of change & times of hope
At all times, music connects us.
Sharing our talent and emotions through music. With each other. Together. Music, by nature, lends itself to connection.
Music connects us.
I want to encourage each of you to give a concert on the porch. If possible, perform any song you love on your porch at 7:00pm every weekday OR ANY WEEKDAY to remind family & neighbors that music can still be shared. Music need not be feared. Music helps bring peace and healing.
There may be students all around the country, perhaps the world, who will be participating as well. What a way to connect us not only to music, but to each other. To fellow music students on the other side of the world. Feel free to invite any musician – parent, community band member, college student, retired directors – to participate as well.
Music connects us.
If you would like to share a portion of your performance, record it and submit it to me. I will also do a performance for YOU. If you like I will share it on our school’s social media (with your parents’ permission) #MusicConnectsUs
