At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, as we sheltered in place and were unable to dance together, NBCDS began holding weekly waltz parties on Zoom so we could listen to music that we love, see each other, and dance together virtually. We thank Sarah Lee for initiating this series and keeping it going for almost THREE YEARS through 100+ online concerts. Our final Saturday Evening Waltz Party was held on December 3, 2022 with Countercurrent. Thanks to our loyal audience from across the country and around the world, whose consistent attendance and generous financial support sustained musicians income and spirits. We so appreciate your kindness and your dedication to keeping our community connected through a trying time.
