A music program reviving some memories that dementia has taken away.
Many of us have relatives who are suffering from various forms of dementia. There’s a program at Lincoln Center in New York called Lincoln Center Momentsthat has cognitive benefits for those suffering and helps them and their caregivers. It’s also open to those around the world via their virtual programs.
Katie Fanning, of the program says there are many examples of how the program has revived long dormant memories.
Here are links to the items mentioned in the podcast.

After reading numerous articles about our shorter than short attention spans, I’ve decided to split this, the August 2024 Classical Music in Color into two parts. It may be a permanent fixture. Let me know what you think.
Mary D. Watkins is a Colorado native who earned a degree in classical composition from Howard University in Washington, DC. She started getting noticed later in life. She won a Female Composer grant from Opera America in 2020, has previously won composer fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, along with various other grants. AND She received a 2021 Artist Legacy Award from the California Arts Council. She was also recognized with a 2022 Composers Now Visionary Award. She says her composition of this opera was a long time coming.
The Second part of this, the August 2024 edition of Classical Music In Color is what I’m calling for now, the Albums, Opportunities, Events and Milestone section of the show.
