Wow! You have to check this out. I just discovered this organization, and I couldn’t help but think, “What a great idea. This should spread all over the country.”
Musicians On Call is a nonprofit organization formed in 1999. Originally founded by Michael Solomon and Vivek Tiwary while doing volunteer work at a cancer center, this non-profit organization brings live and recorded music to the bedsides of patients in healthcare facilities. Musicians On Call uses music to promote and complement the healing process for patients, families and caregivers.
This short video tells their story much better than I can. You’ll see how they “deliver the healing power of music”.
