Mrs. Kohnstamm - who along with Sue Fiala - kindled and nurtured my love of all kinds of music. Thank you for sharing your talent with us at Pound Ridge Elementary. Your passion and generosity is fondly remembered - and never forgotten - and lives on each time I hear music with the Viola Da Gamba and harpsichord.
