PS22 Chorus "If You Want To Sing Out" Cat Stevens

http://www.ps22chorus.blogspot.com

The PS22 Chorus was invited to sing at Tribute WTC 9/11 Family Center, the museum which pays homage to the heroes of September 11, 2001. We performed there on Thursday, Oct. 18, 2007, and the audience was moved to smiles and tears. It was an emotional experience, and we are proud and honored to have been asked to perform at the museum, as well as have our own September 11th video production featured as part of their children's exhibit.




Here the chorus sings a song from one of my all-time favorite movies, Harold & Maude, and a truly great song it is by Cat Stevens. It's called, "If You Want To Sing Out".

It was excellently filmed by professional videographer Jonathan Rivera, uncle of Carmelo, the former chorus member (current headbanger!) who sang at the museum with us.

The PS22 Chorus is not a middle, junior high, or high school chorus. They are a group of extraordinary fifth graders from a public school in N.Y.C.. Click on the above link to visit our chorus' blog.

What a beautiful bunch of talented kids!

Thank you for sharing your chorus with us. This precious video has brought a huge smile to my face, and now I'm sharing it with everyone I know.

You're doing great work with these kids. They will remember you always, and vice versa, I'm sure.
