What is a Memory Café?

Bill Marrone has been a professional musician for over 50 years.  He is proficient in both guitar and piano with skills in a variety of genres including jazz, pop, folk, and classical.  His career included work as an educator, music therapist, and performer.  Now retired, Bill is excited to bring the healing and expressive power of music to others by sharing his passion and love of music.  He is currently volunteering at St. Peter’s University Hospital bringing song and sound to patients, families, visitors, and staff.  Additionally, Bill will soon be joining the environmental music program at Rutgers Cancer Institute of NJ bringing comfort and care to others. He most recently was part of the NJ Department of Health’s (NJ-DOH) employee wellness initiative where DOH staff had the opportunity to relax for a few minutes, de-stress, and rejuvenate.  Bill looks forward to continuing his music journey and bringing the transformative power of music to as many people as possible.
