CONCERTS ON THE HILL THIS SUNDAY
|
Concerts on the Hill's next installment will take place this Sunday, June 28 at 4:00 P.M. at St. John's. The program examines the music of radical artists who defied the cultural norms of their time. Aaron Copland's song cycle of poetry by Emily Dickinson, as well as works by Brahms, Chopin, and Rachmaninoff for soprano, cello, and piano will be featured.
Poet Emily Dickinson's odd quirks didn't sit well with her New England neighbors. Though suspicion abounds, no one knows the nature of the relationship between Johannes Brahms and Clara Schumann. Chopin lived with a woman who had taken a man's name and smoked cigars. Rachmaninoff had such terrible writer's block that he used a brand-new technique of hypnotism to unblock his creative flow. Why are artist's lives always so fascinating? These stories and more will be revealed through the lens of beautiful melodies.
Join us for a journey through music that spans the full range of human emotion. Sunday's program
beautifully blends voice, cello and piano
and provides glimpses into the minds of truly radical artists.

FUNERAL RECEPTION THANK YOU
|
Carl Eric Johnson, you may have loved you, but your whole community loved you just as much. It was with a great deal of sorrow that we said goodbye to Carl Eric on Tuesday, June 23, however, it was with much joy that we celebrated his life. Rob's eulogy was right on: Carl Eric taught us how to ask for help with dignity. It is always the same for us when we call for help with funeral receptions. You were all there waiting to be asked, glad to contribute, wanting to help in any way you could.
We had a full crew manning the kitchen, starting with Anne Williamson and Lory Pratt who came over to set up tables for us, thank you ladies, so much. Laurel Miller, Elaine Wilson, Sandra Pagel, Margaret Sofio, Bertha Rocray, Lisa Moll, and Cyndi Pray were invaluable in getting everything ready, served and cleaned up.
Those who joyfully provided our bounteous feast were: Laurel Miller, Lisa Moll, Mert Moore, Bertha Rocray, Carol Sanderson, Lacey Bangs, Ashley Wade, Sara Todd, Cyndi Pray, Jack Meffen, Joan Kulikowski, Penny Kelly, Chris Sieve, Marion Ellis, Judy Perley, Sharon Jenkins, Karen Zaramba, Nancy Zaramba, Margaret Sofio, Diane Dean, Helen Gettelman, Craig Musselman, Sandra Pagel, Tim Platt, Judy Howard, Jane Holway, Gladys Butterworth, and Suzi Raeside.
It was with great joy we had in celebrating this wonderful man's life. Thank you, all of our St. John's angels for being so generous. If we have missed someone, please know it is unintentional and your gifts were appreciated by all.
With many blessings,
Suzi Raeside and Gladys Butterworth
