The Ensemble of Hope will perform for ALS on October 16, 2022 from 2-3:30 PM at the Seabrook Village Senior Home in Tinton Falls,NJ. The Ensemble of Hope is an accordion ensemble based in the New Jersey/Pennsylvania area.  The group was formed in 2019 to perform in a benefit concert for the ALS Hope Foundation, and its name was chosen to complement the group’s original purpose. The ensemble continues to support ALS Hope Foundation. Some of the members are music educators, while others have pursued non-musical careers but simply love to play!

The ensemble is honored to be playing arrangements by renowned accordionist and music educator, Daniel J Desiderio, created especially for them. The arrangements are divided into three or four parts, plus a special part for bass accordion to interweave melody, harmony and rhythm.
