It's maybe the greatest use of music that I've been a part of - wondering if any other do something similar and would be willing to share?

I play at the hospital each week for patients, families and staff.
Nice Dale! I like this one too 😀

Hi Dale...yes did so for a few years with a lady friend. Good memories. Time and circumstances no longer allow. I was green as could be and needed some coaching. But they tolerated me

That's terrific..sounds like some good memories!
As a kid, I did a lot of plays and musical performances in assisted living homes. But, not as an adult. My wife's been talking about it though and I think it's a great idea.
A long time ago I played weekly at a nursing home and thoroughly enjoyed it. It was one of "those" nursing homes where older folks were basically forgotten about so they were happy to have anyone! Now that I'm retired I wouldn't mind doing something like that again. Here in Florida the joke is this is all one big nursing home!

I'm sure they greatly enjoyed it and benefited from the music as well, thanks for the post!

Thanks for sharing some of your music story...it might be something your really enjoy - if you jump into it I'd love to hear more.
