To play in the newly renovated Danos Theater will be an extra joyful one,\u201d said 果冻APP piano professor, Luciana Soares. \u201cWe are very fortunate to have this beautiful theater. As we return to the Danos Theater, we remember all the members of our community who contributed to bringing the Steinway pianos to 果冻APP, and we honor Al and Mary Danos without whom all this would not have been possible.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Light hors d\u2019oeuvres and an open bar will be available for patrons during intermission. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">果冻APP is the only public music school in the state to have earned the designation of being an All-Steinway School and exclusively uses Steinway pianos for performances and music education. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Doors open at 6:45 p.m. Tickets cost $25 for students and $50 for general admission.
