Carnegie Hall

You’ve heard the expression question of “how do you get to Carnegie Hall?” and the comic, yet also practical answer is practice.

This coming Thursday on December 2nd I have been invited by composer, musician, conductor, musical bon vivant, Tim Janis to host his Christmas concert at Carnegie Hall presented by the Little Sisters of the Poor.

I will read three of my Christmas/Holiday poems. They will be interspersed throughout the musical concert of very talented performers and equally talented choral groups.

Here’s the Playbill:

Oh how I wish I lived back in NY...I would definitely be there...I know you will do a great job and all the attendees will be captured by your readings. Enjoy and "practice, practice, practice"...

If I lived closer to the venue I would be there for sure...I am positive that your input will be superb. "Easy" for you to remember that all of us from 1960 are your very biggest fan club.....Dick
