Sing for Hope 2010 Gala: An American Songbook
10/14/2010 - By New York, NY

Sing for Hope 2010 Gala: An American Songbook

On October 14th, 2010, Sing for Hope (www.singforhope.org) presented its annual gala at 583 Park Avenue in New York City.

The gala raised awareness and support for Sing for Hope’s programs that mobilize professional artists in volunteer service to benefit schools, hospitals and communities. The event also raised funds for the 2011 return of Sing for Hope Street Pianos, a public art installation that brought 60 upright pianos to the streets of New York this past summer, and embodies Sing for Hope’s mission of making art available to all.

Sing for Hope’s 2010 Gala: An American Songbook featured performances by leading Sing for Hope Donor Artists from Lincoln Center and Broadway, and conversation with renowned philanthropic and artistic leaders. All proceeds supported the charitable mission of Sing for Hope, which in the words of Sing for Hope Board Member Renée Fleming, “is dedicated to bringing the healing power of art to those who need it most.”

The evening, chaired by prominent New York philanthropists Joseph and Judi Flom, and co-chaired by Renée Fleming, Deborra-Lee and Hugh Jackman, and Dr. Muhammad Yunus featured an intimate dinner and conversation with honorees Tony Bennett ~ 15-time Grammy Award Winner, Kennedy Center Honoree, and recipient of the United Nations Citizen of the World Award; Ronald Perelman ~ Businessman and Philanthropist; and Ann Ziff ~ Metropolitan Opera Co-Chairman and Vice-Chairman of the Board of Directors of Lincoln Center. Sing for Hope Donor Artist Tituss Burgess from The Little Mermaid and Guys and Dolls on Broadway emceed the event. Guests included Martha Stewart, New York City Schools Chancellor Joel Klein, Vietnamese concert pianist Chosan Nguyen as well as other figureheads from the worlds of business and the arts.

Sing for Hope Donor Artists featured on the evening’s program included internationally-renowned operatic baritone Nathan Gunn, stage, television and film star Roger Bart, Broadway perfomer Janine LaManna, sopranos Jennifer Aylmer and Alyson Cambridge, mezzo-soprano Kate Lindsey, and tenors Glenn Seven Allen and Michael Slattery. Alyson Cambridge and Kate Lindsey appeared courtesy of The Metropolitan Opera.

“The evening was a thrilling success,” said Sing for Hope Co-Founding Director Camille Zamora, “We are so grateful to our wonderful honorees, generous supporters, and brilliant Donor Artists who gave so much to bring the arts to the thousands of students and patients we serve each year.”
