We’re back! Our Chair, the honorable (and infinitely entertaining) Jerry Kremer is speaking, rousing the audience to a special round of applause for the performances so far. Jerry’s reminding everyone that this concert is the fruit of our labors, our special gift to all the people who support us. Francisco’s vision 22 years ago to bring together a mosaic of children to sing together, Jerry reminds us, is now a reality. Last year, we were in Switzerland, Wales, Japan. And we are traveling more this year. (Hey, we’ll soon be at a city near you!) Jerry’s also reminding everyone that we are having our gala this March at Jazz at Lincoln Center. Hope to see you there!
Special thanks, by the way, to tonight’s guest musicians, Jon Holden, Fabio Gardenal, and Guillermo Acevedo, and choreographer Jacquie Bird. Extra special shout out to concert producers Nancy Bloom and Kaare Christian!
