Karla Bauer

As founder and CEO of SHINE On! Music LLC, I have combined my two loves: creating and performing my original jazz music and giving access to high-quality art programs to youth from the underserved communities where I volunteer weekly and in the rural communities where I grew up. I travel to these targeted areas to bring the SHINE On! Music Workshop and Community Outreach Concert program to their communities.

SHINE On! Music Workshop - The students are taught how to develop their careers in the arts. But unlike any other art program, the primary goal of the workshop is to teach youth how to promote themselves successfully and 'safely' in a digital world and how to protect themselves from opportunists in the industry.

Don Hanson

Don Hanson is a saxophonist, composer and educator with a wealth of musical experience across many genres, whose compositions are a reflection of his spiritual journey.

Don's album "Echoes Of Light" is a collection of originals that combine the joy of Jazz with the Spirit of the WORD.

Originally from Dobbs Ferry New York, Don's family relocated to the North Bronx when he was two years old after the death of his father. He began playing clarinet at 11 years old and alto sax at 13.

While attending the Bronx High School Of Science, he didn't participate in the music program, but began working professionally with a local Funk band at 16 years old.
