Dear Friends of CVSM,

 

I am very pleased to announce that our Great American Songbook Musicale on May 20 will now be hosted by Washington National Opera tenor Corey Evan Rotz!  The program will also feature pianist Brian Helman, with soprano Paula Hepfer, bassist Herm Hopple, and drummer Sam Hepfer, performing classic songs from some America's most beloved songwriters, including George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Jerome Kern, and Richard Rodgers. 

 

The musicale will be held at the historic Lane House in Mercersburg.  This was the childhood home of Harriet Lane, niece of James Buchanan.  Current owner Frank Hayman's decorations and artwork are magnificent!  This is a musicale you will not want to miss.  But call soon -- advance reservations are required.

 

Also coming soon . . .

Support live music and arts education while having fun at these great events and activities!  Thank you for your continued interest in the Cumberland Valley School of Music -- your non-profit community school of the arts.

 

Musically yours,

Andrew Sussman
Executive Director
