Talented Doctors and Their Families to Perform in Benefit to Expand the Foundation’s Music Education Programs for Children
(West Palm Beach, FL – June 23, 2016) The Kretzer Piano Music Foundation (KPMF) will be presenting the 5th annual PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE, featuring the musical talents of local physicians, and, for the first time, several doctors will be joined on stage by gifted family members. This fun-filled “Prescription for a Great Evening” will be held at The Harriet Himmel Theater at CityPlace in West Palm Beach on Tuesday, August 16 at 7:30 pm.
“The exciting line-up for this year’s PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE will have the theme of “We Are Family,” and will feature talented physicians performing with their spouses and/or children. There will be dancers, pianists, vocalists, instrumentalists and even an all-doctor band,” promises Kathi Kretzer, founder of the Kretzer Piano Music Foundation. “We were thrilled when our first four concerts raised more than $210,000 to benefit underprivileged children in our area.”
Tickets are $75 each (tax deductible) and may be purchased by calling Complete Ticket Solutions at 866.449.2489. Profit raised from this year’s PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE will enable KPMF to expand its music education programs for many more deserving children.
“For example, just this year donations from the Kretzer Piano Music Foundation enabled 100-plus inner-city children to take fun group piano lessons at the Center for Creative Education in Pleasant City,” says Ms. Kretzer.
“We are still looking for sponsors for the upcoming PHYSICIANS TALENT SHOWCASE, and interested individuals and companies are encouraged to call me directly at 561.748.0036,” she adds.
