Triple Door Sign  

 For those of you who missed our first annual event earlier this year, you don't want to miss the upcoming event on the evening of February 29 (yes, the 29th) at The Triple Door in Seattle.

 

 Jan 20 event 1
 
We'll have a completed program to showcase and several of our "Music Friends" will be performing their favorite songs and moves! 

  Jan 20 Event 2

The evening will begin with a Happy Hour Social in the Musicquarium Lounge before moving on into the Main Stage area for an awesome performance.

Eriam Sisters

After the show for those who wish to stay, we'll be hosting a private party in the Main Stage area where you'll have a chance to meet some of the performers and members of our Foundation.

 Jan 20 Event 5

The event last year was sold out so don't delay once tickets go on sale in early January. We're looking forward to packing the hall with energy and passion for music! Premium tables will be available again for this event and they went quickly last year so stay tuned.  We're looking forward to seeing you there!

It's Rehearsal Time!
First Rehearsal
DC Productions, CB Wollam Design, Seattle Scenic Studios and Mills Music have all had a hand in building the set that will represent the First Note Music Store where each of the 30 lessons will take
Arturo Scriptsplace. CMF has been fortunate to have a Sesame Street Workshop Alum of nearly 40 years advising us with the set and production tips. This is particularly valuable given the role that our "Music Friends" play in this production. 
 
Our "Music Man,"  Arturo Rodriguez has been busy studying scripts and working with our young students (pictured above) to prepare them for the filming late December.  Additionally, Music SRachel and Paulettepecialist Rachel Brackett and CMF Program Director Paulette Evans (pictured left) comb over details to determine the best pairings and combinations of our young performers.  Height, voice, and a host of other factors go into determining what will produce the most professional and engaging music experience for our teachers and students.

 

Big Thanks to our Newest Donors!

 

We'd like to thank our 2 newest supporters, the Loeb  Family Charitable Foundations and The Christel DeHaan Family Foundation.  Thanks to you, our youngest students will have an oportunity to experience music in their classrooms and in their lives!
