In Review
Jerry Rubino was the featured speaker at the club's June 8 meeting.Playing or singing the notes accurately is important, but excellent performers must integrate the mood and emotions of the composer and lyricist, using improvisation as a tool. That's the message speaker Jerry Rubino shared with the Rotary Club of Edina at its meeting June 8, which also included a new member induction, grant check presentation and recognition of the club's newest Major Donors.
