WMI PLUS At Home Testimonials:
“We felt like we were invited over to Claudia & Dan’s and Sonia’s homes for a cup of tea and a good meaningful chat and lots of laughter! Even though in reality I was over 6,000 km away… I really loved the cozy atmosphere of the event, and the chance to get to know these beautiful sunny soulful musicians a bit better.”
– Maija L. (from Finland)
“My WMI PLUS At Home experience with David Broza and Peter Yarrow was inspirational and motivating. During the week of Chanukah, it was fascinating to hear both musicians talk about their music experiences, non-profit organizations they are involved with, and listening to them share some of their music. This was certainly a bright light during a week of darkness. Thank you to the WMI for this fabulous experience.”
– Annice B.
“I had the opportunity to watch an interview with world renowned musician Carlos Nunez via ZOOM on WMI Plus At Home. What an opportunity to hear him discuss the history of the bagpipe, of the Celts, and to see some snippets of his performances. I’ve seen him in concert and although we must settle for ZOOM’ing these days, it was the next best thing to being there. Thank you for this opportunity.”
– Genie C.
