By Diana Ross | Posted in Member Blogs, Staff Blogs | Comments Off on Your First Time…. Cuatro!

We love hearing from long-time members, but I’ll bet there are a few new ones from our recent drive out there who have some great ‘first time’ stories!

The violin is one of my favorite instruments (along with the cello).  I love the violin’s ability to express so many moods.  From a foot-stomping fiddle tune to mournful, soul-aching dirge, the violin […]

By Diana Ross | Posted in Member Blogs, Staff Blogs | Comments Off on Your first time… installment #3!

Today’s stories are beautiful reminders of how deeply intertwined family and music can be in our lives. Does anyone out there take the time to pay it forward?  I think a future write-in topic should be stories about how we influence the younger generations with our love of music.  🙂   Member Patrick Kelly of […]
