(cheerful lively music) (bright lively music) - Music is an integral part of our enjoyment of the holidays.
Hi everyone, I'm Dr. David Heuser, interim Dean at the Crane School of Music at the State University of New York in Potsdam.
This year, our candlelight concert is entitled "Peace and Love" in honor of the late Dr. Lonel Woods.
Dr. Woods served as dean, professor, and mentor here at the Crane School of Music, and our community suffered a great loss when he suddenly passed away in 2021.
Lonel closed every email with the phrase peace and love, and what better sentiment could we express during this holiday season?
We are very proud of the many talented students and faculty members featured in our annual candlelight celebration.
Enjoy and happy holidays.
