Performances
“One of our recreation therapists informed me that during the Music That Heals performance today, a nurse’s station called down asking that we bring a patient up who was due for his pain medication. The patient declined to go back up not wanting to miss any of the performance and stated he didn’t need to as, “this is medicine for me” – S.M – Bronx Calvary Hospital
“Just know how much your music is appreciated in the darkness of a hospital. You are a beacon of light!” – Patient NYU Medical Center
“We got a lot of kind words and attention at the NYU Perlmutter Cancer Center. Indeed there is no lack of suffering around and music is really a sweet way to be part of the solution!”
-Vita Tanga – Red Sahara

“For me it is a perfect union; I get to share my love for music while the people I’m playing for (waiting for their chemo treatment for instance) seem to be comforted, uplifted, and temporarily transported from their distress.”
-Luellen Abdoo, Violinist
“Music That Heals is truly so healing in the way it touches the lives of the patients and families -the most profound at times is the ability for music to really hold someone, when there are no words and gestures that can.”
