Third Annual SBP Memorial Concert

Friday, May 12, 2017
7:15 pm10:00 pm
Sandy Spring Friends School (Sandy Spring, MD)

Sandy Spring Friends School is delighted to present the third annual SBP Memorial Concert, held in honor and memory of Nan Schwarz Pricher '67 and Jane Schwarz Binger on Friday, May 12 at 7:15pm. This year's SBP Memorial Concert features Sonic Escape, founded by Shawn Wyckoff and Maria Kaneko Millar in 2009. Armed with flute & violin, their game plan—use hyper-instrumentals to fill hearts with indescribable joy—has landed them on hundreds of stages across 38 North American states, provinces and beyond! Maria and Shawn push themselves to the brink—singing, dancing, telling stories, and above all, playing their hearts out with a "wonderfully imaginative…anything goes sense of fun." (The Washington Post) Shawn and Maria have galvanized audiences at Lincoln Center, Chautauqua Institution, Kennedy Center, Radio City Music Hall, The Gershwin Theatre on Broadway, and Carnegie Hall. Their workshops and residencies have empowered students from Iqaluit, Nunavut down to Montgomery, Alabama and even their alma mater, The Juilliard School. Sonic Escape's latest offering—Speak like the Star You Are—transforms decades of stage-tested chops into a motivational performance/talk on public speaking. No tickets necessary. For more information about the concert, please visit www.ssfs.org/events/SBP. Questions? Please contact Lauren Mossman, Director of Advancement, at lauren.mossman@ssfs.org or 301-774-7455, ext. 107.
