A Musical Memorial for Jon Gindick

Celebrating a Life that Brought Music to Thousands 

Dear Friends, 
We invite you to join us for a heartfelt afternoon celebrating the life, music, and legacy of Jon Gindick, beloved teacher, mentor, performer, and a true harmonica legend. 

For more than 50 years, Jon opened the door to music for tens of thousands of harmonica players around the world. Through his teaching, performances, humor, and generosity of spirit, he helped people find not just notes—but confidence, joy, and community. 

On Sunday, January 11, we will gather to honor Jon the way he would have loved most: with music, stories, photos, and fellowship.
