STORY

Cheryl Marshall is no stranger to big stages in the city that never sleeps. A Juilliard graduate, she was once a well-known New Music Soprano in New York. Her performances included pieces by hallmark composers such as Milton Babbitt and John Cage; her name was on reviews of The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, and many more.

Now, Cheryl still sings in New York, only on a much smaller stage—at the bedside of residents in nursing homes. “Small is good,” she says with passion about her work named Compassion Care and Music, “the smaller, the better.”
