LIFEThruMusic Christmas Concert 2020

Hello Friends & Supporters,

This year has been a very challenging year. We wanted to spread a little joy this season with some Christmas Music from our students. We are so proud of this group! Due to social distancing recommendations we weren't able to have rehearsals. Our students had to practice on their own time and be prepared to record. Special thanks to our parents that make sure their kids are practicing daily!

Hope this brings you some hope & inspiration during these trying times. Thank you to our sponsors the UPS Foundation, Erie Downtown Development Corporation and our Partner for this event Community Country Day School.

Have a safe & blessed holiday from LIFE!

Join us in a few Christmas songs as we close out this difficult and challenging year. We hope this brings you joy during this season.

Today at 4 p.m.: members of Gannon's Black Student Union - in collaboration with the members of the Association of Black Collegians of Penn State Behrend and Lifethrumusic - will present, Cultural Crossroads: Our Story Told Through Rhymes, Rhythms, and Reflections.

Register: https://bit.ly/2Nh4s0d.
"This Saturday's Cultural Crossroads will include speakers from both Gannon and Penn State Behrend reading poetry and prose, as well as a reading of Amanda Gorman's inaugural poem “The Hill We Climb.” A representative from Gannon’s International Hispanic Association will read a poem titled “Poema,” and members of Lifethrumusic will put on dance and vocal performances.

“I think people will be impressed with the talent of these young people,” Parris Baker, Ph.D. said.

The title of the event, “Cultural Crossroads,” is important to emphasize, Baker said. Celebration of Black history is important, but the polarized political and cultural climate that exists today creates an environment in which it is necessary to help people see that celebration of any one culture involves everyone."
