Music Feeds Us announces 2016 Chamber Music Concerts

Contributors
  • Saturday, May 14, 7:30 PM, Trinity Episcopal Church, Staunton
  • Sunday, May 15, 3:30 PM, Westminster Presbyterian Church, Charlottesville, with The Virginia Consort, a chamber chorus, joining the quartet as a special guest

newspaperThe concert program features works by Haydn, Schumann and Hanza El Din. The concerts are free; however, all monetary donations and gifts of food are gratefully accepted for the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank.

Music Feeds Us, as part of their educational outreach program, will also perform at Tye and Woodbrook Elementary Schools, and Charlottesville High School as they continue to introduce classical music and stringed instruments to students.

Celebrating their fifth anniversary season, Music Feeds Us has provided over 82,000 meals for the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank. The 2016 goal is to exceed a cumulative 100,000 meals. To reach this goal they need to raise $4500 at their benefit concerts.

One in six children in the Blue Ridge area struggles with hunger. Every $1 donation will provide four nourishing meals for our neighbors in need. Music Feeds Us thanks you in advance for your attendance, generosity and your donations!
