Does your community have a special concert series or musical venue? Do have a connection with a local band, singer, orchestra, or choir? Are you brave enough for karaoke?

Harmony for Hearing
- A featured event. Click here for step-by-step-instructions.
- Do you play in a band, sing in a choir, or perform in a barbershop quartet? Put on a fundraising concert. It could be held anywhere from a park to a school to a backyard.
- Tie into an existing concert or musical performance. To raise awareness about hearing, you could incorporate fun facts and trivia questions. For example…
- What's the decibel level of an electric guitar?
- How is a concert hall designed for maximum acoustics?
- What's the highest note ever hit by an opera singer
- Host a "Battle of the Bands" for students. This could involve school groups or "garage" bands. (Although it it's the latter, you may not want to use "harmony" in the event title!)
- Talk your friends into a karaoke contest. Hand out ear plugs to protect the audience from the most enthusiastic but tone deaf singers. Award a prize to the best and worst contestants. (Maybe the worst gets the Golden Ear Plug Award?)
Depending on the type of concert, consider these off-key names:
Harmonicas for Hearing
- Feature a local blues band. Or host a tribute to your favorite artist.
Honky Tonk for Hearing
- For that night of country music and line dancing you've been waiting for. Or how about a hoedown?
