James Williams, resident of Renaissance at Kessler Park, visits with Vurl Bland, tuba, following a Brass Quintet Concert

January 12th.

“It is an honor to be involved with a program that gives in two directions. We get to share our talents with others who can’t get out and in return we receive the joy of being able to know that our musical gift has enlivened someone’s day.”

— Vurl Bland, Tuba
