Staten Island Music Academy Goes Virtual for Annual Holiday Performance

During the ongoing pandemic, the world is finding ways to adjust and stay connected. For the high-quality music and art education franchise, DEA Music & Art, that’s meant going virtual. 

Silive.com reported that New York-based DEA Music & Art held its annual holiday performance virtually this year in order to remain safe and stay in line with the state’s COVID-19 safety guidelines. Typically, the exciting performance is held at Madison Square Garden and Radio City Music Hall. And while 2020’s holiday may have felt a bit different, Magi Kapllani, founder of DEA Music & Art, stuck true to tradition and performed the school’s favorites.

“To keep the holiday spirit alive, we published a slew of videos on our YouTube channel,” Kallpani told silive.com. “We have clips of students singing holiday songs like “Last Christmas” and popular songs like “Vienna” by Billy Joel. Now, families can watch their students' performances over and over again on Youtube.”
