Abernethy Laurels


On Sunday afternoon, June 13, 2010, I performed at Abernethy Laurels in Newton, NC in their beautiful chapel! I was absolutely delighted to be able to perform for the wonderful audience at Abernethy Laurels, which included residents and supporters of the retirement community, as well as members from the local community. I was joined by Kristen (a talented young harpist and pianist) and Amanda (a talented young pianist) for this Sunday afternoon performance. I had so much fun performing on Sunday afternoon with Kristen and Amanda! They are such sweet and talented young ladies!

Our musical program consisted of beginning and ending with congregational hymns, accompanied by Kristen and I as a harp duo. We then performed a variety of harp duets and solos during the program. Amanda performed a couple selections on the piano and Kristen performed the offertory on the piano. Kristen, Amanda, and I truly appreciated the wonderful audience of around 100 people that attended our performance! Thank you so much for joining us! Here is an outline of Sunday's program.
