"I love All Newton Music School. I would like to see the music school continue to be the eminent source for music education, to reach out to inner city schildren and share the excellence of our performances."

Chris Dour
Volunteer

"I donate my time and expertise to construct sets for the Musical Theater Company, because there is no better feeling than watching the performers acting out their dreams on stage."

Ginny Adams
Corporator, donor, volunteer and oboe student

"Thank you, ANMS for helping me fulfill a dream that was a long time coming. As someone once said, "You are never too old to be what you might have been." Increasing my participation in the school has been a natural progression, each step a learning experience: as a beginning adult student of the oboe, as a music library organizer volunteer and as a member of the Corporation. I have come to love the school and its mission and am inspired by the energy and dedication of all involved with its success."

Steve Logowitz
Vice President, Trustee, donor and clarinet student

"ANMS itself is the real joy. Just walking in and hearing the various sounds wafting through at almost any time of day or night is a true testament to the power of music and to the commitment of those who help guide us to it. Just when you think you've crossed a threshold of knowledge in music - wham! You realize that you are yet at the bottom of another tall peak. There is so much to know, so much to discover - and it's endlessly fascinating, frustrating and, in the end, highly gratifying."

Cathy Grein
President, Trustee and donor

"ANMS is grateful for the extended family of supporters who share in furthering the vital mission of the school in a variety of ways. As we approach the 100th year of the school, we want to ensure that it continues to bring the gift of music to people of all ages – to a young child performing in a first recital or show; to a long-time student cultivating individual or ensemble skills; to a retiree who may be rekindling the love of learning an instrument; to members of this community who value the experience of high-quality concerts in an intimate setting and at very affordable prices."

Henry Finch & Pat Robinson
Henry Finch is a member of the Board Emeritus and a piano student. Both he and his wife Pat are donors, volunteers and parents.

(Henry): "I first took lessons at the All Newton Music School in 1968 as a college student home for summer vacation, and since then haven’t been able to stay away for long. After our sons started lessons at All Newton, I joined in with piano lessons. Our younger son Ben has taken clarinet lessons from Paulette Bowes for over ten years and his continual improvement and love of music is wonderful. My wife Pat and I don’t miss a Wolf concert or Con Brio and we really enjoy volunteering time with graphic design and photography to help the school."
