CMA Songwriters Series presented by U.S. Bank visits the McGlohon Theater in Charlotte for a performance featuring (L-R) Frank Rogers, @LindsayEll (Team Broken Bow) @Russelled (Team Triple Tigers) and Jordan Reynolds. During the trip, the songwriters met with band students from Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools. Through a financial investment from the CMA Foundation and U.S. Bank, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools will uplift 48 elementary music programs with music library needs and small instruments (orff instruments, accessory instruments, rhythm sticks, boomwhackers, hand chimes and more). In addition, the investment will support 100 hours of coaching for instrumental music programs, supplement district wide repair funds, provide summer music camp opportunities, supplement emerging ensemble programs, and give four secondary schools a basic set of instruments including flutes, clarinets, trumpets and violins.
