Montreal, Feb. 14, 2023 – For the 13th annual Singing Valentines, La Scena Musicale marshaled 18 trained singers to offer 100 free serenades for seniors who are 65 and older. From seniors centres to older friends and family members, the singers sent a mixture of telephone calls and videos to brighten up the Valentine’s Day of loved ones.
“Over the last year and a half, I lost both my 86-year-old father-in-law and my 99-year-old father,” says Wah Keung Chan, founder of La Scena Musicale and creator of Singing Valentines. “I want to do something special for seniors.”
“It was just wonderful,” said Cheryl and John, a couple who received the personalized serenade by phone.
