This afternoon’s concert at the senior home was filled with joy, nostalgia, and connection as talented young musicians shared their gifts with an appreciative audience. The program opened with Edwin Thai’s lively Grande Valse Brillante, setting a tone of elegance and sparkle. Andrew Yang followed with The Ice Skater, his gentle phrasing painting vivid scenes that drew smiles from the listeners. The heartfelt I’ve Got Peace Like a River brought a sense of calm and familiarity, leading into a charming duet of Humoresque by Evelyn Thai and Edwin Thai that had many residents quietly humming along. Jacob Wang’s sensitive performance of Chopin’s Nocturne in E seemed to pause time, while Sigi Wang’s spirited Haydn Concerto in A Minor on violin filled the room with brightness and warmth. Beethoven’s Das Wiedersehn evoked memories for several audience members, who later shared that the piece reminded them of treasured moments from their own pasts. The program concluded with Married Life, Nuvole Bianche, and Idea 10, performed with gentle expression by Sophia Liu, bringing the afternoon to a soft, heartfelt close. Many seniors swayed quietly to the music, and the room lingered in a peaceful hush before filling with warm applause and words of thanks. The smiles, tapping feet, and quiet gratitude from the residents were a reminder of music’s timeless ability to bridge generations and bring people together. (Reported by Sophia Liu)
