A reader who loves solving math problems, Megan’s intellectual curiosity and great proficiency with computers and typing, among other talents, defy the stereotypes of someone who was born with autism, who is mostly nonverbal, and who has obsessive compulsive disorder, a condition that drives her laser-focused organizational skills and need to put things in their proper place.
Read all about Megan in our latest article here - https://www.penn-mar.org/megan-holt-forging-a-pathway-to-employment/
Megan volunteers at Opus weekly, and they gave her a nice welcome in their latest newsletter.
Help us congratulate Megan on her volunteering gig!
Our delegation from Carroll County included representatives from the CCAC staff and board, Common Ground on the Hill, Carroll County Cloggers, Carroll County Public Library, and the OPUS Community Music School of Sykesville.
We had the chance to meet with Carroll County delegates Justin Ready, April Rose, and Haven Shoemaker to tell them about our organizations and how the arts have positively impacted Carroll County.
Our delegation encouraged them to support the governor’s proposed FY2021 budget for arts funding, the establishment of the Maryland Arts and Culture Capital Grant program, and the continuation of the Preservation of the Cultural Arts fund.
These three calls to action will ensure that the arts stay alive and well in Maryland for another year (and many more)!
Thanks to everyone at Maryland Citizens for the Arts (MCA) for making this day possible.

#CarrollArtsCenter #OPUSMusicSchool #ChamberMusic
The program is Chopin's g minor Sonata for cello and piano, Faure's Sicilienne for cello and piano, and Debussy's Clair de Lune for solo piano.
For many years David Simpson has been an active performer in contemporary music and in ensembles devoted to Baroque music on period instruments. As a member of l'Ensemble Kaleidocollage, l'Itinéraire, l'Ensemble 2e2m, and l'Ensemble TM+, he has participated in numerous premiere performances of contemporary solo and chamber works. As for early music, he has been solo (continuo) cellist for Les Arts Florissants since 1983, and has directed several of the group's concert series. He is also a member of the Atlantis Quartet, a string quartet on period instruments whose goal is to "rediscover" both well-known and lesser-known works of the Classical repertory in the light of period performance practice. In solo recitals he will frequently perform a mixture of Baroque and contemporary works.
Since 1988 David Simpson has taught Baroque cello at the Paris Conservatoire à Rayonnement Régional , where he also teaches Baroque ornamentation and a class on tuning and temperaments. From 1984 to 1987 he directed the Atelier de Music Baroque at the Lille Conservatory, and has given master classes as part of early music courses in France (Pézenas, Digne, Angoulême, Chinon, Amilly), Austria (Vienna), Sweden (Boras), Italy (Urbino), and the US (Juilliard School, New York).
David Simpson was born in 1952 in New Haven, Connecticut. His interest in the sciences led him to Harvard University, where he studied applied mathematics, earning a Bachelor of Arts degree cm laude in 1974. He studied music at the Juilliard School in New York and at the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique in Paris, winning First Prizes in cello and chamber music. His cello teachers were George Finckel, Michael Rudiakov, Bernard Greenhouse, Benjamin Zander, and André Navarra. Classes with the composer Leon Kirchner at Harvard, with Nadia Boulanger, and with cellist Anner Bylsma also contributed strongly to his musical education
His numerous chamber music recordings on CDs include "Triphon" for cello solo by Giacinto Scelsi, cello sonatas by Barrière and Geminiani with harpsichordist Noëlle Spieth, cantatas by Marcello and Haendel with countertenor Henri Ledroit (all on the SOLSTICE label), and Schoenberg's "Pierrot Lunaire" with l'Ensemble Kaleidocollage (LE CHANT DU MONDE).

How music can help kids learn literacy skills - MindShift
Literacy depends on detecting sound patterns. “When we think about rhythm, we think about music. But there is rhythm in speech."
How music can help kids learn literacy skills - MindShift One of the many benefits of music education is the way it can help with reading and language skills.
