Singing for the elderly in Tallinn

With a small group of people from our church friends and a musician family from Kuusalu, a few miles away, we practised some songs and played some tunes in a hospital, which was more like a retirement home with medical care. Though our audience was not very big, it was good for us to come sing and play music to them, for it brought a little entertainment in their dull looking day. Some were halfway asleep, others had sparkling eyes, but all clapped and thanked us warmly for coming to see them. I played some Irish tunes which was something they hadn’t heard much before, and when they announced that we had come from FRance, they were suprised and a lady even thanked us with a cute “Merci” at the end…

I can’t hear the music but can imagine how your audience was delighted !
Thank you - both of you- to give your time to others and bring joy around you.
