Turning a Window into a Concert Venue
What happens when a globetrotting music teacher finds herself grounded in Spain due to the COVID-19 pandemic? Jennifer Parnall transformed her apartment window into a concert venue, hosting daily performances aimed at uplifting her neighbors’ spirits.
Inspired by Community
Initially motivated by viral videos of Italians singing from their balconies during the lockdown, Jennifer decided to bring a similar energy to her own community. Equipped with her keyboard, ukulele, and microphone, she began taking requests from nearby windows, connecting with people of all ages through music.
A Melodic Escape
Over the weeks, she has delighted her audience with a repertoire that spans beloved pop hits, including classics from The Sound of Music, Katy Perry, and the Beatles. Consequently, her concerts have become a cherished daily ritual for the residents in her neighborhood, fostering a sense of unity and joy amidst challenging times.
