BMS Music Marathon Is “All About Art” & Fundraising04:22PM / Thursday, March 12, 2009
Musical mania hits Berkshire Music School March 28 and 29 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. during Music Marathon. This major fundraising event features non-stop sponsored performances, a colorful silent auction of original music-related drawings by Andrew DeVries, the BMS merchandise booth, a raffle and bake sale.
The public is invited to hear sponsored performances of every type, from violin solos and bass ensembles, to“KinderChoir” and cabaret, all at no charge. The School is located at 30 Wendell Avenue, Pittsfield. Free parking is available. For a schedule of performances, please call 413-442-1411.
According to Tracy Wilson, BMS Excutive Director:
The annual BMS Music Marathon is all about perpetuating art by raising funds for educational programs, financial aid and merit scholarships. As the School approaches year 70 in 2010, it has a proven history of preserving and advancing the art of music. Students of all ages gather donations from sponsors for the Music Marathon. Each participant then takes the stage for a mini recital, introducing all disciplines of music, including jazz and vocals. Last year nearly $15,000 went towards these programs. This has been the School’s most important fundraiser for more than thirty years. There’s nothing more inspiring than kids earning scholarship money so that other kids can take music lessons.
For more information on supporting the BMS scholarship program, call Tracy Wilson at 413-442-1411 or email twilson@berkshiremusicschool.org.
Jazz artist Charlie Tokarz, and friends will kick off Music Marathon during a Prelude Party, Friday, March 27, with a “prelude” of their own. The group, including Fran Curley, percussion; Dave Bartley, piano; and Dave Christopolis, bass, will perform a mini set of tunes from their upcoming Berkshire Music School benefit later this spring (date and time to be announced soon). The Prelude Party also includes music by BMS students, wine and hors d’oeuvres , plus desserts and cordials. Festivities run from 6 – 8 p.m. at BMS, 30 Wendell Avenue, Pittsfield. The cost is $50 per person. To RSVP call 413-442-1411. Space is limited. Music Marathon events are underwritten by Greylock Federal Credit Union. |
