Another post from the visit to a continuing care community health center, in Easton, Md on 1/2/08. I visit this area of the community 2x/mo, a portion of that time devoted to a group music program. My "approach" is to give the residents the same (hopefully) artistically substantive presentation that I would give anywhere else, knowing that they will "get it" (even if their expression of this is subtle, or reserved). Jazz musicians performed much of the popular music of the culture of the residents, so this expression is "within bounds".

I've been a musician most of my life and I can tell ya that this guy Joe Holt plays the piano the way most could only dream of doing. I give him all 5 stars and then some. Well done. Mark C..... C-town

"Once in a While" an encouraging word goes a long way. Thanks, it means a lot! See you around town (once I figure out who you are)!

Oops! My bad. Sorry - sometimes it takes awhile for stuff to sink in. Slow learning curve. Thanks Mark! See you soon (and I know where now) :)
