It was a big day for music at the Adult Day Center recently when we were visited by two different musical groups from UCLA—the UCLA Gluck Klezmer Ensemble & Medleys A Ca****la. The UCLA Herb Alpert School of Music Gluck Fellows Program is the beneficiary of a generous grant from the Max H. Gluck Foundation, which enables their finest UCLA music students to offer educational performances. Their Klezmer Music Ensemble brings fresh and vibrant expressions of Ashkenazi Jewish musical tradition, performing traditional klezmer standards alongside original arrangements of Stevie Wonder, Studio Ghibli, and more! Medleys A Ca****la is a community service-based group committed to spreading care, love, and joy through the healing power of music, all around LA.

We are so grateful to enjoy the talents and generosity of these incredible students!
