On December 15, 2019, the Phoenix branch put on a Christmas concert at the Enclave Senior Living from 2:30-4PM. There was a total of 16 performances, 18 performers, and 3 hosts. In this concert, the branch put on a variety of performances, including piano, saxophone, singing, violin, cello, and flute. Between each act, one of the hosts would briefly introduce the next act with a short description of the song. The performers not only put on a spectacular show, but also engaged with the audience. The seniors relaxed and enjoyed each of performances. Giving the seniors company by holding this concert surely was a wonderful experience.
In this one and a half hour event (plus one hour for preparation and practice), Katherine Wei, Michelle Yu, and Ethan Wei were our hosts; Emily Zeng, Alex Ji, Wen Chen, Ethan Wei, Davina Chen, Samantha Qian, Tony Liu, Jayden Liu, Andrew Yang, Audrey Zeng, Victor Long, Richard Cheng, Michelle Yu, Charles Zhang, Kevin Chen, Carol Chen, Amanda Xu, and Shreya Sreekanthem were our performers. The concert was very entertaining for the performers, the seniors, and others in the audience. We hope to continue holding concerts like this in the future around the holiday seasons!
