It’s All About Love (Music at Atria LG) – February 14th, 2025
I had the pleasure of playing a Valentine’s Day piano concert for my Dad / Grandpa Gene and other residents, staff, and friends at Atria (in the Life Guidance community). I was delighted to see a sea of red when I arrived, as the staff had helped residents don their best Valentine’s attire, and had seated them very close to the piano (for this reason, I did not record anything this time). Thankfully, my friend Tamera came 🙂 and took a few short videos, and Atria posted some photos. I hope to do this again next year – it was a delightful time, especially when people knew the songs and sang along (and a few danced!)
