Redwood High Musicians Bring Holiday Cheer to So. Marin Health and Wellness
14 year-old violinist Dheyan Lim, a freshman at Redwood High School and a member of the Marin Symphony Youth Orchestra, returned to South Marin Health and Wellness for a Holiday season performance in December, and this time he brought along some friends: fellow Redwood High students Tugdual Ricordel (violin), Boyi Hu (violin), and Jesse Deuel (viola) joined him for a repertoire of classical pieces and holiday songs. They performed quite a range of pieces: “Daisy, Daisy”, “Good King Wenceslas”, “Gavotte”, “Irish Faire'', “Silver Wood”, “L'Arlesienne”, “Jolly Old St. Nicholas”, the 1st movement of a viola concerto by Telemann, “Sarabande” by Carl Bohm, “Lalo-Symphonie Espagnole” mvmt 3, “Jupiter” (Holst), “Hark the Herald Angels Sing”, and “O Christmas Tree”.
Residents sang along, others moved their feet, and one resident even moved her arms like she was conducting an orchestra! Thanks again to Dheyan, Tugdual, Boyi, and Jesse for sharing all their musical gifts with confined seniors and spreading some much-needed holiday cheer.
“I thought that it was great that the residents sang along”
