It was a nearly full house at Emmanual Lutheran Church on December 15, 2024. Bill Reichenbach led a 51-piece trombone choir playing all the excellent holiday arrangements he is known for. Here is a photo Jerry Hey took, and we will post more as they come in. The generosity was high, and so was the enthusiasm. The plates were passed, and the fund received over $5,000 to help musicians in crisis.
With an incredible turnout of over 350 attendees and around 40 talented players, this year’s Hearts of Music concert set the stage on fire! The generosity of our audience shone through as we raised an impressive $4,795 in donations!
A massive shoutout to our amazing Hearts of Music volunteers, including the fantastic Missy Kelly and Deborah Check, and the unwavering support from board members Nancy Ackerman and Fran Reichenbach. Their dedication turned the greeting area into a lively hub of positive energy and cheer. It’s safe to say that this year’s concert was not just a success; it was a celebration of community spirit and the power of music to bring joy and support.
Roving videographers Merlin David and Olivia Duke captured the richness of the Trombones LA performance with Bill Reichenbach’s talents and sense of humor rounding out this joyful event.
Trombones LA once again offers this free concert on December 10, 2023 to usher in your Christmas and holiday celebrations. We hope you’ll come and join us at:
Emmanuel Lutheran Church
6020 Radford Avenue
North Hollywood, CA 91606
This free concert starts at 7 p.m., but doors open at 6:30 p.m.
The yearly “Trombones LA” concert is the Hearts of Music Fund’s biggest and best fundraising effort of the year. Your generous donation supports musicians and their families facing extraordinary health care expenses in situations of illness or death. In fact, your financial gift brings holistic healing and hope in situations when other funding support is limited or unavailable. All gifts are tax-deductible.
Trombones LA CDs will be available for purchase at the concert for your gift-giving needs.
With thanks,
Bill Reichenbach
