Celebrating the creativity of the human spirit
Actors tell stories of what was and what can be with words. Musicians do it with sound. We create the colors and vibrations that stir your heart and conjure the images in your head. It is vitally important for us to remember and to play music by those whose voices were silenced. They created so much beauty and light with their music, that they must simply not be forgotten. –Kate Steinbeck
