I went to public school a number of years ago. I do vaguely remember a music teacher coming by about once a week. Eventually, the music program got cut back and the only way you got music was by joining the band or orchestra. Unfortunately, my ability to master even the simple recorder proved illusive.
However, I have retained a fondness for music and in particular classical music.
The Los Angeles Philharmonic has its share of swanky events for the well-heeled such as the annual opening night gala.
However, they also take community and educational opportunities quite seriously.
So for this month's spotlight on non-profits consider support for Friends of the LA Phil.
Here is a rundown of other non-profits I've mentioned on this blog:
NIckels for Nets
Avenues Crisis Pregnancy Center
Faith in Christ Ministry
Habitat for Humanity
Rambling about soccer: LA Galaxy, IF Elfsborg, Falkenbergs FF, Liverpool FC, Queens Park Rangers, and LAFC. Also random rambling about Star Trek, LA sports (Dodgers, UCLA, Kings, Lakers, Rams), politics (centrist), faith (Christian), and life. Send comments to rrblog[at]yahoo[dot]com.
