This is awesome. The Winnipeg Arts Council's participatory concert series returns to Winnipeg in September! (Winnipeg, MB) – The Winnipeg Arts Council is pleased to announce that Mass Appeal will be back this September. Mass Appeal is a series of concerts performed by, and for, the public. Participation in Mass Appeal is free to anyone who wants to take part either as a performer or an audience member. Mass Appeal concerts are free to attend, are performed by amateur and professional musicians of all skill levels, feature a wide variety of music, and take place in all kinds of publicly accessible spaces. Each Mass Appeal event is a 30-minute concert featuring a different type of musical instrument, performed under the guidance of a Music Director who has prepared a repertoire suitable for players of all ages and skill levels. Anyone interested in being a part of the ensemble can download the music from www.massappealwinnipeg.ca. Musicians practice the songs on their own and then show up at the scheduled time and place for a group rehearsal followed by the performance. The website contains tips, links, videos, and sound files for the songs to be performed, and the music selections range from very easy to more challenging, so that there is something for everyone. Last year, at our inaugural Mass Appeal, we were delighted with the turnout and enthusiasm from Winnipeggers who sang, strummed, played and even danced in the rain. Anyone is welcome to participate as a musician or as an enthusiastic audience member. “Our goal with Mass Appeal is to celebrate community and to animate the city through music,” says Executive Director Carol A. Phillips. “As city builders, the Winnipeg Arts Council believes strongly that the arts have a tremendous role to play in developing our quality of life. And paramount to that is developing programs and partnerships that provide the public with access to artistic experiences. With Mass Appeal, everyone can do that.” MASS APPEAL SCHEDULE OF EVENTS: Thursday, September 7: Mass Appeal Accordions City Hall Plaza Rehearsal 6:00 – 7:00 pm; Concert 7:30 – 8:00 pm Music Director: Stephen Kiz, Accordion Instructor at Manitoba Conservatory of Music and Art and performer with BMW Dixieland Band.

"Blood pressure control is very important, both for reducing stroke and heart risk, but also for reducing the risk of dementia and cognitive impairment, but we don't yet know whether initiating antihypertensive therapy in older adults, with the primary purpose of reducing cognitive decline, is actually effective and safe," says Johns Hopkins neurologist Rebecca Gottesman bit.ly/2iqkRyY (via HealthDay News)
