12
00:00:45.600 --> 00:00:48.359
<v Speaker 2>days at okay In Music. It honors and celebrates the

13
00:00:48.439 --> 00:00:52.039
<v Speaker 2>life of Saint Nicholas. Too many also know as Santa Claus,

14
00:00:52.439 --> 00:00:55.399
<v Speaker 2>but Saint Nicholas was a real person, and so we'd

15
00:00:55.439 --> 00:00:58.119
<v Speaker 2>like to honor this day by celebrating it with our

00:01:05.599 --> 00:01:08.959
<v Speaker 2>celebrate that day through a story time with Saint Nicholas.

19
00:01:08.959 --> 00:01:12.959
<v Speaker 2>Saint Nicholas will be at our event. It is this Friday,

<v Speaker 2>them up today starting today through Fridays, wow five at

62
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:41.360
<v Speaker 2>our office, which again is at four or fifteen south.

63
00:03:41.120 --> 00:03:43.080
<v Speaker 1>East dewey Man.

64
00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:44.159
<v Speaker 3>That is really cool.

65
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:47.159
<v Speaker 1>And you know what the thing is with the instruments

66
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:50.759
<v Speaker 1>in there, It gives the kids a little first hand

67
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:54.479
<v Speaker 1>to hands on, to kind of get familiar with maybe

68
00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:57.080
<v Speaker 1>something fun, maybe something that's going to take their interest

69
00:03:57.120 --> 00:03:59.199
<v Speaker 1>a little bit further than just one day.

70
00:03:59.240 --> 00:04:02.199
<v Speaker 2>And he usually yes, no, it's really exciting.

71
00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:02.560
<v Speaker 3>It has.

72
00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:04.639
<v Speaker 2>I will just tell you about the instruments. We have

73
00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:07.840
<v Speaker 2>a recorder. They're really fun. You either get a red

74
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:10.800
<v Speaker 2>one or a green one for cook clubs, or harmonica

75
00:04:10.840 --> 00:04:14.080
<v Speaker 2>which also very nice to monica red or green, and

76
00:04:14.120 --> 00:04:17.199
<v Speaker 2>then you get jingle belts. And then the peace saver

77
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:20.959
<v Speaker 2>resistance is the ukulele. You get an actual real ukulele

78
00:04:21.399 --> 00:04:23.800
<v Speaker 2>in your bag. And so I think you could make

79
00:04:23.839 --> 00:04:27.160
<v Speaker 2>it a family event. Everyone could take an instrument and

80
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:30.480
<v Speaker 2>you could all learn jingle belts together. So I think

81
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.959
<v Speaker 2>it's a wonderful way to introduce children to music, to

82
00:04:34.160 --> 00:04:38.360
<v Speaker 2>music instrumentation, and it's just you know, the opening in

83
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:41.800
<v Speaker 2>the beginning to a lifelong filled with music. And you know,

84
00:04:41.879 --> 00:04:45.600
<v Speaker 2>com being a musician yourself, how much joy music brings

85
00:04:46.120 --> 00:04:49.240
<v Speaker 2>through one and to the community, and so we're we're

86
00:04:49.319 --> 00:04:52.279
<v Speaker 2>excited and tickle pinks that we're able to offer these bags.

87
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:55.560
<v Speaker 2>They really are special. In fact, we have adults who

88
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.680
<v Speaker 2>buy them as gifts for a nieces and nephews, and

89
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:00.759
<v Speaker 2>I think we have some adults too actually buy them

90
00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:05.000
<v Speaker 2>for themselves. And so because they celebrated Saint Michelis as

91
00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:08.279
<v Speaker 2>a child and they have fond memories of that tradition,

92
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:10.879
<v Speaker 2>and so you know, we want to keep that tradition going.

93
00:05:11.319 --> 00:05:14.199
<v Speaker 2>So again, come get your bag or reserve your spot.

94
00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:16.920
<v Speaker 2>It's going to be a great time. I was just

95
00:05:16.959 --> 00:05:21.279
<v Speaker 2>talking to Camera Walker, who is obviously the director of

96
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:26.040
<v Speaker 2>the Bartlesfell Chloir, and she has so many wonderful songs prepared.

97
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:28.680
<v Speaker 2>The kids are really excited, and so those of you

98
00:05:28.759 --> 00:05:32.439
<v Speaker 2>who came out to the Kindle market you heard them perform,

99
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:37.800
<v Speaker 2>and they are truly amazing. Everyone sort of thought that

100
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:40.800
<v Speaker 2>they were doing when they started performing and really paid

101
00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:43.399
<v Speaker 2>attention and listened, and you know that they were asking,

102
00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:46.439
<v Speaker 2>oh my gosh, she really did. And we were excited

103
00:05:46.439 --> 00:05:48.120
<v Speaker 2>to tell them that they were in the Bartowell High

104
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:50.800
<v Speaker 2>School and they are part of the choir and jobs

105
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:54.839
<v Speaker 2>Choir en Humble and they are truly talented, so please

106
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:58.120
<v Speaker 2>come out and support them. They do a fantastic job

107
00:05:58.160 --> 00:05:59.959
<v Speaker 2>and the kids love to get up and sing well

108
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:02.639
<v Speaker 2>them and dance, and it's a really it's a fun time,

109
00:06:02.959 --> 00:06:03.560
<v Speaker 2>oh it is.

110
00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:05.800
<v Speaker 3>It is really a joyous time, you know.

111
00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:09.439
<v Speaker 1>With the ok A lot of people will think, okay festival,

112
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:12.079
<v Speaker 1>But the thing is, we do these other fun things

113
00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:16.399
<v Speaker 1>year round, not only to raise funds for the festival,

114
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:20.360
<v Speaker 1>but also to bring music into people's life with different

115
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:23.000
<v Speaker 1>forms of engagement, this being one of them, you know.

116
00:06:23.040 --> 00:06:24.800
<v Speaker 3>And we just had the October Fest.

117
00:06:24.879 --> 00:06:27.240
<v Speaker 1>We had the Chris Kindle Market and a few other

118
00:06:27.319 --> 00:06:30.160
<v Speaker 1>things too, but it keeps everything pretty much on the

119
00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:32.199
<v Speaker 1>top of mind awareness.

120
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:36.399
<v Speaker 2>As they say, absolutely we want folks to have the

121
00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:40.839
<v Speaker 2>opportunity to have programming year round. It's a way. Both

122
00:06:40.879 --> 00:06:44.199
<v Speaker 2>Cryptkindle Market and Saint Nicholas Day are a way for

123
00:06:44.439 --> 00:06:49.920
<v Speaker 2>ACAM Music to truly showcase our youth performers in Bartlesville

124
00:06:50.079 --> 00:06:54.120
<v Speaker 2>and showcase their talents, allow them the opportunity to perform

125
00:06:54.279 --> 00:06:57.560
<v Speaker 2>outside of school and give them more experience, give them

126
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:00.360
<v Speaker 2>more exposure, and it truly is a way, and of

127
00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:05.079
<v Speaker 2>course then it inspires younger students and younger performers that

128
00:07:05.240 --> 00:07:07.160
<v Speaker 2>you know someday they'll get to do the same thing,

129
00:07:07.240 --> 00:07:10.639
<v Speaker 2>and it gives some inspiration, but also be good education.

130
00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:15.480
<v Speaker 2>So often you know, you learn maybe new piece of music,

131
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:21.160
<v Speaker 2>or you learn a cultural pidbit about maybe a performance

132
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:24.920
<v Speaker 2>or a peep of music. And so it's a wonderful experience.

133
00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:28.879
<v Speaker 2>It's wonderful for the community. I never seen anyone frowning.

134
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:32.519
<v Speaker 2>Everyone is always my work. So it brings joy, I

135
00:07:32.560 --> 00:07:34.959
<v Speaker 2>think when you get to do all this wonderful music.

136
00:07:35.279 --> 00:07:39.360
<v Speaker 2>But again, our event is this Friday, December sixth It

153
00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:35.080
<v Speaker 2>way to give back to the community and share a

154
00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:39.799
<v Speaker 2>little bit of Saint Nicholas stories and in a special

155
00:08:39.879 --> 00:08:41.440
<v Speaker 2>time of year with everyone.

156
00:08:42.200 --> 00:08:44.399
<v Speaker 1>You know, we we have so many different events that

157
00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:46.279
<v Speaker 1>we do with Okay, but this one is the one

158
00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:49.200
<v Speaker 1>just kind of brings the big old smile that just doesn't.

159
00:08:48.960 --> 00:08:51.720
<v Speaker 3>Go away for days, you know, because they say they're

160
00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:52.679
<v Speaker 3>so cute.

161
00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:54.360
<v Speaker 2>You know. And you know, that's the nice thing about

162
00:08:54.399 --> 00:08:58.279
<v Speaker 2>Saint Nicholas Day is it really encompasses what a nonprofit

163
00:08:58.440 --> 00:09:01.840
<v Speaker 2>is all about, and it's about giving. Saint Nicholais was

164
00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:05.480
<v Speaker 2>an amazing saint who of course was known throughout his

165
00:09:05.679 --> 00:09:12.559
<v Speaker 2>life for being extremely generous and basically a very philanthropic gentleman.

166
00:09:13.039 --> 00:09:17.440
<v Speaker 2>And so we celebrate that because without nonprofits, the world

167
00:09:17.519 --> 00:09:20.279
<v Speaker 2>would not be the place that it is, and so

168
00:09:20.399 --> 00:09:24.000
<v Speaker 2>we celebrate nonprofits. We celebrate the joy of giving, and

169
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:27.080
<v Speaker 2>we thank all of our patrons for supporting us and

170
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:29.200
<v Speaker 2>making it possible for us to give back to the

171
00:09:29.279 --> 00:09:33.039
<v Speaker 2>community and to give back to the children of Bartlesviille.

172
00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:36.120
<v Speaker 2>I will say we also have another very special event

173
00:09:36.200 --> 00:09:39.200
<v Speaker 2>coming up a week from the sixth, on the thirteenth,

174
00:09:39.759 --> 00:09:43.720
<v Speaker 2>we have a merry musical Christmas concert with our very

175
00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:47.600
<v Speaker 2>own Ocean Music to use keyboard orchestra, and we are

176
00:09:47.799 --> 00:09:50.000
<v Speaker 2>very excited about that. It will be at the First

177
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:54.279
<v Speaker 2>Positarian Church which is located on five or five South Zwi,

178
00:09:54.480 --> 00:09:57.120
<v Speaker 2>just right across the street from the Ocean Music office,

179
00:09:57.759 --> 00:10:02.320
<v Speaker 2>and they are going to be playing amazing pieces that

180
00:10:02.519 --> 00:10:07.240
<v Speaker 2>everyone is very similiar with, like Chikopsky's Overturch to the Nutcracker,

181
00:10:07.360 --> 00:10:12.200
<v Speaker 2>jingle Bells, Personalel Deck the Halls, songs that everyone certainly

182
00:10:12.240 --> 00:10:14.720
<v Speaker 2>will be able to get into and we'll really enjoy.

183
00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:17.960
<v Speaker 2>Our instructors used to Steal and Happy Stewart have been

184
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:21.200
<v Speaker 2>looking very hard with these kids, and so again, if

185
00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:23.720
<v Speaker 2>you're interested in coming, we just asked as you get

186
00:10:23.759 --> 00:10:25.919
<v Speaker 2>on the web site it open and music dot org,

188
00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:32.919

189
00:10:33.039 --> 00:10:36.080
<v Speaker 2>the leases that we've done that we are definitely in

190
00:10:36.200 --> 00:10:39.600
<v Speaker 2>this area and we've seen nationwide. Are the first true

191
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:44.960
<v Speaker 2>use keyboard orchestra, and these kids do an amazing job.

192
00:10:45.080 --> 00:10:49.240
<v Speaker 2>So they learn how to play different instruments, pution on

193
00:10:49.559 --> 00:10:52.480
<v Speaker 2>these keyboards, and when you hear it, it sounds like

194
00:10:52.559 --> 00:10:57.200
<v Speaker 2>a full ensemble orchestra. It's pretty remarkable. It's really cool,

195
00:10:57.279 --> 00:10:59.000
<v Speaker 2>and they have a lot of fun with it. So

196
00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:02.120
<v Speaker 2>we're very excited to showcase these instruments, and we're very

197
00:11:02.200 --> 00:11:05.799
<v Speaker 2>excited to showcase the talent of these young performers. And

198
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:10.039
<v Speaker 2>so again that's coming up on Friday, December thirteenth, seven

199
00:11:10.039 --> 00:11:12.960
<v Speaker 2>o'clock at the Change.

200
00:11:13.639 --> 00:11:15.720
<v Speaker 3>Wow, it happened here in Barlsville.

201
00:11:15.759 --> 00:11:17.480
<v Speaker 1>I like that it is.

202
00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:21.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, you know, from November through December, it is

203
00:11:21.440 --> 00:11:24.559
<v Speaker 2>all about our youth. It's all about our young performers,

204
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:28.480
<v Speaker 2>and it's all about you know, showcasing their talents and

205
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:31.759
<v Speaker 2>letting everyone come out and see why we do what

206
00:11:31.919 --> 00:11:34.519
<v Speaker 2>we do and why we have the festival. All of

207
00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:37.960
<v Speaker 2>these professional musicians got started somewhere, and we hope that

208
00:11:38.120 --> 00:11:40.759
<v Speaker 2>it's you know, at a place like Okay and Music,

209
00:11:40.879 --> 00:11:44.399
<v Speaker 2>where someone gave them the a chance and worked with them,

210
00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:48.480
<v Speaker 2>and you know, then they grew into an amazing adult performer.

211
00:11:49.399 --> 00:11:50.320
<v Speaker 3>Why my goodness.

212
00:11:50.919 --> 00:11:54.399
<v Speaker 1>You know, when we think about all of the things

213
00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:59.200
<v Speaker 1>that OK does for our community and for basically the

214
00:11:59.720 --> 00:12:03.039
<v Speaker 1>kid too and everyone involved, we would just like to

215
00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:03.720
<v Speaker 1>say thanks to.

216
00:12:03.799 --> 00:12:06.919
<v Speaker 3>You for doing all that you do and your real

217
00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:08.399
<v Speaker 3>gym here in our community and.

218
00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Folks, you just need to take care of it, participate

219
00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:14.799
<v Speaker 1>in the things we've got going on, and you might

220
00:12:14.960 --> 00:12:17.840
<v Speaker 1>accidentally enjoy yourself and have a good time at the

221
00:12:17.960 --> 00:12:18.600
<v Speaker 1>same time.

222
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:19.480
<v Speaker 3>How about that?

223
00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:24.080
<v Speaker 2>It is so I you know, I think it's very hard,

224
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:29.399
<v Speaker 2>unless maybe you are possibly I think maybe you know,

225
00:12:29.480 --> 00:12:32.679
<v Speaker 2>there there are times that music can elicit sad emotion,

226
00:12:32.960 --> 00:12:35.919
<v Speaker 2>obviously at a funeral or whatnot. But for the most part,

227
00:12:35.960 --> 00:12:40.159
<v Speaker 2>I think that music is joyous, it's inspirational, it's soulful.

228
00:12:40.879 --> 00:12:43.559
<v Speaker 2>You know, often it can elicit someone to cry, it

229
00:12:43.639 --> 00:12:46.200
<v Speaker 2>can listen someone to die laughing, or just bring a

230
00:12:46.279 --> 00:12:51.000
<v Speaker 2>smile to their faith. It's calming, it's beautiful, and that's

231
00:12:51.039 --> 00:12:54.600
<v Speaker 2>what we try to share with kids throughout our musical

232
00:12:54.720 --> 00:12:57.879
<v Speaker 2>educational programming. You know, we talk about all of the

233
00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:00.679
<v Speaker 2>different composers, and we talk about all the different of music,

234
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:04.240
<v Speaker 2>but it's fun to, you know, just share the emotional

235
00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:08.279
<v Speaker 2>joy that music can have. And so I you know,

236
00:13:08.600 --> 00:13:10.759
<v Speaker 2>you're talking about the crety coming out. Very rarely do

237
00:13:10.879 --> 00:13:13.879
<v Speaker 2>I see anyone that was just singed. I think less

238
00:13:13.919 --> 00:13:16.559
<v Speaker 2>people have smiles on their face. And I think people

239
00:13:16.600 --> 00:13:19.879
<v Speaker 2>are extremely accreciatives And I appreciate you saying that, Tom,

240
00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:22.840
<v Speaker 2>with what we do, they certainly support it. We have

241
00:13:23.039 --> 00:13:25.720
<v Speaker 2>patrons who has been coming for forty years and we

242
00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:27.960
<v Speaker 2>are so grateful to them, and we hope we have

243
00:13:28.039 --> 00:13:30.960
<v Speaker 2>a new generation that will be coming for another forty

244
00:13:31.039 --> 00:13:35.000
<v Speaker 2>years because music is important and we want to continue

245
00:13:35.080 --> 00:13:38.279
<v Speaker 2>sharing that with all ages and make it accessible and

246
00:13:38.360 --> 00:13:39.639
<v Speaker 2>make it free to the public.

247
00:13:40.320 --> 00:13:43.159
<v Speaker 1>And you know what, we also have scholarships and we

248
00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:45.360
