We're making splendid music to help raise money for the Accelerated
Cure Project! Everything from the coloratura Bell Song from Lakme
down to the bass La Colunnia from the Barber of Seville, with side
trips to Puccini, Verdi, Mozart, Spanish Renaissance recorder music,
a Bach violin/piano sonata... performed by excellent local musicians
(including Rebecca Hains, Thomas Dawkins, Susan Swan, Fred
Furnari...), and a few that have come from out-of-town for the cause.

Why are we doing this?

Multiple Sclerosis is progressive, crippling, and incurable. It
strikes over 400,000 people in the US and 2 million worldwide. It
typically hits in your mid-thirties (often younger) - and nobody
knows what causes it, who's likely to get it, or what can set off a
new attack.

The Accelerated Cure Project has created a national Repository - a
tissue bank, with collection sites across the country, that's already
providing data & samples for over 20 research studies world-wide. It
costs $1000 to add each new tissue donor to the bank. So we're
raising money to help expand the Repository.
