Vail's Memorial Park


As musicians, many of our performances involve the celebration of life's events. And while we play for many weddings - the beginning of a couple's life together, we also have opportunities to participate in memorial services to celebrate a life well lived.

Today we played for the memorial service of a long time Vail resident at the Vail Memorial Park. Against the mountain with the wildflowers, flagstone paths, and river gurgling by, nature too seemed to celebrate the life of this amazing woman.




It was an honor to be asked to share our music with those who came to celebrate the life of their loved one and pay their respects. It was especially an honor to play in such a beautiful venue. While our music was strictly classical, it seemed to bounce off of the rocks and cascade along with the water, joining the birds and the wind in nature's soothing lullaby.
