As the nation continues to mourn the senseless violence that claimed so many innocent lives in Newtown, Connecticut last Friday, musicians around the country are organizing to send a message of sympathy and unity.
All musicians are asked to observe a moment of silence at every musical performance in the USA on Saturday, December 22nd, 2012 at 10:00 PM in whatever time zone they are performing.
It is hoped that practitioners in other areas of the performing arts will join musicians in honoring the memory of these innocent victims -- one of whom was the daughter of a musician.
This action will also show that artists stand unified in their desire to prevent such tragedies in the future.
