Please meet the photographer for the Peace In Concert 2023 poster. We chose the image from our Friends' Photo Gallery. We love the image very much. Thank you, Kerrie!

Kerrie Sadler:
Originally from Ohio, and having previously lived in New York City and Chicago, Kerrie Sadler had the great good fortune of moving to Westlake Village, California with her husband and two children 26 years ago. She has traveled extensively throughout the country and internationally, and loves to captureimages of the beauty of her surroundings along the way.  Now retired, Kerrie’s more recent career was working in public relations for the New West Symphony, a local professional orchestra. She stays involved with her community by volunteering with Senior Concerns, an adult day care center for seniors with cognitive and physical impairments. She is alsobusy with many church-related activities, and serves on the Cultural and Recreation Board of the City of Westlake Village. Kerrie is an avid choral singer, enjoying the beautiful harmonies and life-long friendships created through the preparation and performance of many styles of music. Though not a trained photographer and with nothing more than her trusty iPhone 8, she still attempts to find just the right setting, light and balance in the pictures she takes. Her goal is to catch the fleeting feeling of awe that exists for her when the image is taken, so that the person viewing the photo later might imagine that moment, as well.

Congratulations, Alexander Michael Tseitlin
"This past @cyasymphony cycle has been the most humbling and inspiring musical experience in recent memory. To see thse incredible musicians, each with true hope and passion for their craft and for music as an artform, tackle a program that would buckle the most seasoned professional orchestras (and do so with virtuosity and excellence) gives me hope for what music and expression will be in the coming generation. Bravo to these amazing musicians, and to everyone who came together to send CYAS on the next stage of its journey."

Some good things are happening to our musician friends, Mainly Two from UK.
This is exciting news about Marie Schreer.
"Still buzzing from last weekend! A section leader Prom debut for me, and what a wonderful one it was. It had all the tunes, emotions, wildness, and humour one could wish for. You can watch it on BBC Four for another eleven whole months. And if you’re a fan of fog horns, this one is definitely for you ⚓️"

Hello, I’m Tomiko Hamada Taylor, I’m organizing the Peace In Concert.
This is the 7th year of this concert.
We have a very difficult time right now. Some musician friends were not able to perform. I hope our situation will change soon and we can meet each other and perform together.
There is a very good news. I’d like to thank to all the wonderful performers who have joined this project.
I’d like to mention a few special people who introduced me to wonderful musicians.
Dr. Daniel Kessner: He is a world renowned composer and flutist. Because of his kindness he introduced me to musicians from England and Germany.
Paul Anthony Romero: He is also a world renowned pianist and composer. He generously introduced me to musicians from Russia and Czech.
Ilja Mishchenkov; He is a young very active violinist and composer. He introduced me to more people from Russia and China.
Rachel Kamradt; she brought four musicians from different locations and using technology she made an ensemble performance.
We want musician friends from many countries and locations, and play for peace.
Because of all participants our goal is coming true. From China to California with the earth’s rotation we will be connected through music.
This concert will be February 6th at 3:00pm in each location.
I will introduce a performer per day until the concert day.
