wsma board perspective
morning he joins a piano player and sev- eral volunteer singers to play a sing-along at a local nursing home. On the first and second Sunday afternoons of every month, he often joins other non-amplified string instrument players for jam sessions. An upcoming trip with his older daughter is planned to visit the Four String Banjo Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City.
Last year, Robert started taking piano lessons again.
Conclusion of Case Study: It is clear that for this individual, “Music Lasts a Lifetime.”
Implications for Further Study: Seek other individuals who are willing to share their musical stories. How many
people do you know whose music has lasted a lifetime?
Final Quote: “I never met a musician who regretted being one!” ~ Virgil Thomson
