Ten Grands VIII - "What A Wonderful World"

Written by Bob Thiele and George Weiss, and first recorded by Louis Armstrong, "What A Wonderful World" is performed as a duet by Michael Allen Harrison and John Nilsen.

Ten Grands features ten grand pianos and ten concert pianists playing a variety of classical and modern pieces both simultaneously and individually. Traditionally presented just once a year at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, three shows are planned for the 2008 concert season.

There were two performances in Portland on April 5, 2008 at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, and one show on May 17th, 2008 in Seattle, WA.

Concert proceeds benefit The Snowman Foundation, which in turn benefits youth service groups, helps generate scholarships and music lessons for disadvantaged youth in Oregon and Southwest Washington and helps purchase pianos for schools and organizations in need.
