Sign of the Times

Our sign party appears to have been an absolute success. Despite threatening rain, about 80 people showed up and helped us raise almost $300 for the family of Bruce Murray.

Thanks to all who turned up to support both causes, and a special thanks to __ & __ for putting on a private concert in the store for Bruce. Mr. Murray was delighted, and so were we. It’s always wonderful to hear beautiful instruments played beautifully! Laura played one of Bruce’s fiddles and her mom played our exquisite Bluthner which looks like it’s finally found itself an excellent home. The last performance of this beautiful baby grand in this neck of the woods may well be Peter Brown’s jazz cd release party on May 25th - see the previous post for details.
