I love this story!
Cousin Donna sent me this picture of handsome husband, Bob!
You know I am already a fan, as in a recent blog here.
I knew that he would be singing with a choir at Carnegie Hall.
And, only a tux will do for such an auspicious occasion.
Bradenton Herald Newspaper reported:
Twenty - four talented members of Faith United Methodist Church Choir
will take the trip of a lifetime to NYC where they will join
approximately 250 other singers from around the world on stage at
Carnegie Hall, the most famed concert venues of
all. The group will participate in a performance of Joseph Martin's
"Appalachian Winter" on Nov. 27,
during Distinguished Concerts International's NY Concert Series at
Carnegie Hall. In preparation, they will also spend nine to ten hours
in rehearsals led
by Martin during their five-day stay. The group was selected to take
part in the highly prestigious concert series after their choir director
was contacted by the associate director of Carnegie Hall who had come
across its Christmas Cantata "Invitation to
a Miracle" (also composed by Joseph Martin) on line and requested a
recording be submitted for consideration.
A bus will take all to Tampa for flight to NYC. Carnegie has
made the flight plans and plans where we will be staying in NYC. The choir here has had many money making events which includes go fund me and
last week's event at Powell Crosby Estate with the tux and on Sat. 11th the choir will perform at the
beach which will have an admission with proceeds used for the trip.
But Donna filled in the story in a recent e-mail.
"Last spring he went to Goodwill in Indiana
& Bob found this tuxedo for
$6.00 ...
he took it to cleaners which cost $6.00 to have cleaned.
So, he got
that outfit for $12.00 and will
give back to Goodwill after singing at
Carnegie in NYC."
Looks like a million to me, Bob!
