CREATIVE MUSIC CENTER TO HOST A CONCERT FOR HEALING

IN HONOR OF SANDY HOOK

In honor of the Sandy Hook families, Creative Music Center of Monroe will be hosting, “Amazing Grace: A Concert for Healing,” on Sunday, January 27, 2013 from 3:00 – 5:30 pm at the Masuk High School Auditorium at 1014 Monroe Turnpike in Monroe. 

Faculty and students from Creative Music Center will perform both instrumental and vocal pieces, alongside other local, professional musicians.  The program will feature a variety of solos and ensembles including an acapella vocal group, a classical guitar and flute duo and trio, a brass duo, and much more.

 Liz Reisman, owner of Creative Music, hopes this event will be an offering of solace using creative expression for the Newtown families and surrounding communities.

 Leonard Bernstein, composer, conductor and teacher of music once said, “This will be our reply to violence: to make music more intensely, more beautifully, more devotedly than ever before.”

 There is no cost to attend. Please visit the Creative Music Center’s Facebook Event page for more information: https://www.facebook.com/events/305581356229904/

Good luck Laura, My husband and I tried to get some on Purdy Hill Road from Rt.111 to Rt.25. theyRead More said they can't do it. I have asked numerous times to have a police officer sit in Farmview or use our driveway, said it's too dangerous, go figure. Tired of drivers around town having no respect for other drivers and people walking on side of road. It gets to the point that I don't even want to leave my house. Get a clue people slow down, stay off phones, it's not hard.

Well, realistically, you won't get speed bumps (they just don't do that on public streets) but youRead More might get a speed trap once in a while. I drive this road every weekday and am just as appalled as you are by the speeding. And let me tell you, it's not always youngsters. I've seen a few blue-haired old ladies ride my bumper on that street. We have a similar problem on Barn Hill, another long stretch of road where drivers feel the need for speed. What I can't figure out (with all due respect) is why anybody with half a brain would choose either of those streets for their morning or evening walk. That's just tempting fate.
