In the hushed corners of memory, a mother?s love orchestrates the most beautiful melodies.
Let me introduce myself?
I?m Michael Severens, principal cellist of the Guanajuato Symphony Orchestra (Orquesta Sinf?nica de la Universidad de Guanajuato), based in Guanajuato, Mexico. I was raised in Worcester, Massachusetts, am a devoted dog lover, part-time punk rocker, and youngest son of Chuck and Julia (Padanyi-Gulyas) Severens.
Why Support This Campaign?
As a performing musician, I tend to express myself better in music than in words. However, I wish to acknowledge profound gratitude to my mother, who survives to be my most ardent fan and most reliable critic. The unconditional love and steadfast support I received from my parents over my life provided me with wonderful opportunities and experiences. This fundraising campaign is one way I can demonstrate my appreciation and enable Julia to continue to be my cheering section in comfort and dignity.
