Alan links the music he presents to the lives of our center members and takes time to understand our community before any performance. He engages members and staff participation using songs and music that come across as a conversation and telling a story. Alan relates well to multiple age senior mainstream audiences, as well as people with memory and varied disabilities. The information shared about each song and the character or lyricist represented by the music is interesting and follows the theme’s stated goals and objectives for any program. This adapts well to the needs of Baltimore County’s diverse senior centers.

“Mr. Rubinstein has a rare talent for bringing older adult people together. He has always

something to surprise, delight and inspire the group of participants with his brilliant oral

comments on famous American songs, with his ability to get right to the people's hearts by

providing impressive images and intellectual lights of music compositions.”

“Alan presents a very entertaining and meaningful program and will adapt well to different performance venues and audience age groups. The program took shape as both an educational and musical experience that emphasizes the power that film music has on the listener in varied types of venues.”

-Schnell Reed Garrett Director of Student Life | Howard Community College

"Alan was able to keep the diverse audience engaged by his excellent piano and vocal skills linked to a thematic presentation about famous film music. He used open ended questions that linked larger cultural concerns with the self and collective awareness of the audience. He also shared lots of fun facts and trivia knowledge that made the presentation enjoyable and exciting. We highly recommend his appealing and enjoyable presentation that can be easily adapted to your organization, school or association."
