Harmony & Healing, a live music charity that helps hospice, hospital and rehab patients, has stepped up with a new initiative to offer comfort through the power of music to those who need it most. The organization is all about bringing live music performances to individuals in hospitals and healthcare settings. This effort aims to uplift spirits and bring some normalcy to patients during tough times. For those interested in experiencing or supporting this mission, more details can be found on their website.
The founder, former BOSTON guitarist, David Victor, believes strongly in the power of music within healing spaces. "Music has an incredible ability to touch hearts and lift spirits, offering comfort and relief when it's needed the most," said Victor. This new initiative goes hand-in-hand with Harmony & Healing's mission to make a meaningful impact by leveraging the power of music in healthcare environments.
A critical part of this initiative is the Benefit Concert series. These concerts are designed to raise funds that will help bring more musical performances to healthcare facilities, allowing more patients to enjoy the calming effects of live music. The funds from these concerts enable Harmony & Healing to expand its reach and continue offering these heartening experiences to more patients and their families.
Victor shared some thoughts on why community support is crucial for their efforts, "Community engagement is key to making our music programs successful. By attending our performances or contributing to our cause, individuals can play a significant role in brightening the days of those facing health challenges."
Harmony & Healing doesn't work alone. They team up with different partners to spread their mission further. Collaborating allows them to tailor programs that suit specific patient groups. This means the music not only lifts spirits but also fits culturally and age-specific needs, making the therapeutic experience more effective.
A standout partnership is with the George Mark Children's House pediatric hospice. This collaboration highlights Harmony & Healing's dedication to bringing the gift of music to young patients and their families.

As Harmony & Healing continues to grow, they are committed to building a network of musicians, healthcare providers, and community members who can support their mission. This network is key in bringing music to healing spaces where it can make a big difference. By engaging a variety of stakeholders, Harmony & Healing creates a community focused on the healing abilities of music. More about their artists and how to join their network can be found on their website.
Beyond performances, Harmony & Healing offers workshops and training for musicians eager to participate. These programs equip musicians with the necessary skills to perform in healthcare settings thoughtfully and effectively, ensuring their contribution is therapeutic.
