Musician, heal thyself...and others!
Surround yourself in soothing music this weekend and as you experience a musical presentation by University of Kentucky School of Music and UK HealthCare, an Overture to Healing Concert, featuring violinist virtuoso, Nadia Salerno-Sonnenberg.
As most of you know, I am a big believer in the healing power of the arts, whether it be in writing, visual arts, any sort of creative effort, but especially, I love and know that music can soothe my spirit when all else fails.
So imagine how happy I was to see that this concert will raise money for Kentucky’s first graduate-level music therapy program! Overture to Healing is the creation of the University of Kentucky’s Lucille Caudill Little Performing Arts in HealthCare Program.
This program is a joint initiative of UK HealthCare and the UK School of Music, and recognizes the arts and artists as powerful entities that serve as a positive force in the healing process for all patients and their families.
