]]> Comment on Piano Concert Tonight Benefits Underprivileged Children in Vietnam by Jeff Gahr http://glennstrumpetnotes.com/2011/12/03/piano-concert-tonight-benefits-underprivileged-children-in-vietnam/#comment-1414 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 00:49:21 +0000 http://glennstrumpetnotes.com/?p=2709#comment-1414 Thank you, Glenn, for the excellent introduction and information about our benefit concert. The turn out was better than we expected with the venue filled to near capacity. We got so many positive comments about the professionalism of the musicians and the quality of the music presented. There were lots of interest and support for our scholarship project to help the underprivileged chilren in Vietnam. We exceeded our fundraising goal for the event and hope many of the donors will continue to support us beyond the concert event. We are planning to sponsor another benefit concert again in 2012. Hope to see you there.

Thank you,

Jeff Gahr – Compassion In Deeds Secretary

I can still hear the voice of my great grandfather telling the story of the birth of Christ. We’ve been reading from Isaiah for about 14 years, ever since our grandson, Isaiah, was old enough to repeat the words whispered in his ear and learn about his namesake. We read a poem written by my great-grandfather in the mid-20th century, and eat foods that my mother and grandmother made each year on Christmas Eve. The carols are heartily sung with a “make a joyful noise” air to our festivities. Glenn’s cornet contribution to our family’s Christmas Eve celebration is a relatively recent addition, but already one of the things we look forward to with great anticipation. His rendition of “Angels We Have Heard on High” with its clear melodic tones was moving, and the light-hearted “Santa Baby” a perfect seque to our gift exchange. Traditions help us remember and treasure those who are no longer with us, but whose love continues to grace our lives. Thank you, Glenn, for adding your special talents to our family traditions and for sharing this wonderful account of our 2011 Christmas Eve celebration!
