Sing Along With Dorothy

This 20 minute selection of sing-along songs Dorothy played are mid-20th century, but they were well known by our audiences from 1995 through 2019 in Phoenix as we used them to entertain Fletcher Music Center concert crowds, Schroeders's audiences as well as or own audiences for retirement residences. This particular sing-along is in September 2019, at her age 84 with only six months more of being out there in live performances. She was able to teach and play at home until 2020 at 85 then she took time off and watched a lot of musicals and westerns on TV that I often watched with her. TCM was especially good, delivered like a college course in movie history. Between shows, she enjoyed coloring hundreds of pictures of cats, flowers, scenery, stained glass windows, dogs and horses. She transitioned to the next realm of existence on Jan. 16, 2025, as she approached 90 years of musical and artistic life as performer, expert salesperson, and instructor-- as well as my best buddy, pal, business-associate and wife. When I miss her, I pick one of hundreds of videos or audio files of her or our performances and bring her back to life, sort of, a little bit, and that really helps a lot.
