Let’s Finish the Year on a High Note!
The violinist takes the stage, filled with nervous excitement. She has prepared for this concert for countless hours. She smiles at the crowd before her, and the audience leans forward in anticipation. She puts her bow to the instrument, takes a deep breath, and nods to the pianist. This image could describe a performance by any one of Community MusicWorks’ eight outstanding Resident Musicians, or four accomplished Fellows, or one of our 155 committed students. While these musicians all have a different connection to CMW, they share a common bond of musical curiosity, hard mental and physical work, and encouragement from their colleagues and teachers. And they have YOU, supporting them through your applause at our concerts and your thoughtful donations to CMW. Make your online gift to CMW today. As we look toward the end of our 19th season and our final lessons, coachings, conversations, and concerts, I hope you will reflect on what you love about our musicians and consider making a gift to CMW this spring. Your donation plays a central part in every performance – from the practice room to the performance stage, from the first rehearsal to the resounding applause.
We cannot make our music without you. With gratitude, P.S. The school year, CMW’s season and our fiscal year end on June 30. Your gift this spring will support our final lessons, coaching, and performances and will help us prepare for our next season – our 20th! Photos by Stephanie Alvarez Ewens |
