FINDING
NEW HOMES FOR INSTRUMENTS:
In addition to our local music endeavors and our internet involvement,
we are happy to announce that we recently assisted a disabled musician who lives
in Tennessee. In addition to his disabling condition, he is also still
displaced by the tragic hurricane Katrina. When his electric guitar recently
shorted out and with no funds to replace or repair it, he contacted us for
help. Luckily, we were able to turn to a small pool of donated instruments in
our studio, found a suitable replacement for him and shipped it right down to
him. He is extremely happy to be fulfilling his dream and playing again. Copies
of his correspondence with CDM can be found on our
Fan Mail page.
SUCCESSFUL
GRANT BRINGS NEW EQUIPMENT TO CDM:
We are pleased to announce that
CDM recently purchased an Apple laptop computer with video editing capabilities.
The purchase of this laptop computer and video software is made possible with funds from the JP Morgan Chase Regrant Program. In Nassau and Suffolk Counties the JP Morgan Chase Regrant Program is administered by the Huntington Arts Council, Inc. (www.huntingtonarts.org)
We are most grateful for their assistance in our mission of enabling musicians in pursuing their musical dreams! Thank you for your support!

understanding of disability-related problems.
Give access to an
accessible rehearsal and recording
studio.
Create "tag-team" systems and other adaptive techniques
for pain, endurance, and other limitations.
Set up studio and stage bands for amateurs and professionals.
