What Is Music & Memories?

The Music & Memories program brings the healing power of live, interactive music to assisted living communities, memory care facilities, libraries, and community centers. As a multi-instrumentalist (piano, violin, ukulele, fiddle), I tailor each performance to the audience — mixing familiar classics, sing-alongs, and instrument demos that spark connection and joy.

What Makes It Special

  • Interactive: Residents sing along, clap, and even request songs
  • Multi-instrument: Switching between piano, violin, and ukulele keeps energy fresh
  • Memory-friendly: Designed to resonate with those experiencing cognitive change
  • Flexible: 30–60 minute programs, large or small groups

What Our Clients Say

Jenny is an absolutely lovely pianist, and a truer professional. Can’t wait to work with her again!

Christy S.

We had Jenny as our pianist at our Mardi Gras house party! She not only entertained our guests with her upbeat, lively music, but was very engaging and connected! We even had a few breakout dances to her music. We’ll definitely have her for a future event! Such fun!

“Jenny’s ‘Music & Memories’ program is an excellent and engaging experience for our residents at Balmoral Care Center & The Highlands. Residents enjoy the interactive, sing-along nature of the performance and it resonates well with our residents who are experiencing cognitive change. We have heard many compliments on the program from residents, caregivers, and family members who enjoyed participating in and listening to Jenny’s talented, multi-instrument event.”

I can’t say enough wonderful things…

I can’t say enough wonderful things about Jenny and her incredible students. Their dedication, talent, and generosity truly stand out. Not only does she bring out the best in every student, but she also inspires them to give back to the community through volunteering.
It’s rare to find a teacher who creates such a positive, uplifting environment while also encouraging her students to make a difference. If you’re looking for someone who teaches with passion and purpose, this is the place to be.
