PS22 Chorus "Empire State of Mind" Radio City (Jay-Z Alicia Keys)

http://ps22chorus.blogspot.com

What more appropriate place for the PS22 Chorus of 2010 to give its farewell performance of the school year than at the one and only Radio City Music Hall?! That's just where the kids sang their swan song(s) today, singing 2 songs for the National Conference of Volunteering and Service! The event was hosted by Al Roker, Joe Scarborough, and Mika Brzezinski, and had many high profile types in attendance, such as Hank Azaria and Neil Bush (George W.'s brother) and Mayor Michael Bloomberg among others.

Here the kids are singing one of their biggest viral hits this year, "Empire State of Mind Pt. XXII" by Jay-Z & Alicia Keys. They did an awesome job on it, and even got a second standing ovation! 2 for 2!! Dominique outdid herself, performing her solo to perfection, and Sarah did a phenomenal job on the rap, and she only found out this morning that she was covering for a missing Messale!

All in all, an amazing day, an amazing year!

I can't find a better place for this but who is Ms Lisa. He mentions her when they did this song with Celtic Woman. That's where I found out about this group and there are a few things that confuse me.
