MEDIA ADVISORY, July 8, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) --
WHAT: Music and art therapy are part of a growing movement toward
holistic patient/family centered care. An ensemble of some of
the music industry's notable musicians and singers, along with
St. Joseph Hospital physicians are demonstrating the power of
music and art, in health and wellness. "Celebrating the Music
of America" is a free dynamic indoor concert within a hospital
setting, and includes complimentary refreshments.
Several artists will be on hand to perform, including Hilliard
Wilson on bass and vocals, and Indeya who is noted for her
compelling five-octave vocal range. Wilson has
performed/toured with top artists such as Ray Charles, Joe
Sample, Santana and Chicago, while Indeya's experience with top
tier artists includes performances/tours with Patti LaBelle,
Stevie Wonder, Anita Baker and Chet Atkins.
The inspiring art created by St. Joseph Hospital's own Drs.
Alain Wu and Martin Feldman will be on display as well. Their
artwork celebrates serenity, nature and the beauty of the
world.
The Sisters of St. Joseph of Orange continue to lead the way
for integrating holistic care in an outpatient hospital
setting. The Holistic Design Team at the St. Joseph Hospital
Outpatient Pavilion is dedicated to the "Sanctuary of Health
and Healing" for caregivers, patients, and families. Music and
massage therapy are offered on a daily basis.
