MusicForPeace Worldwide Sing-Along - July 24th!
Music Heals The World: We are living in turbulent times and civil unrest. It has been a rough summer with all of the recent tragic events that's been happening n the United States and abroad. We need relief. As we continue to pray for the world, we will unite on one day to lift our voices to the heavens and spread love through music.
On Sunday, July 24th, I am honored to host a sing-along at Morningside Park in upper Manhattan (110th Street and Morningside Ave.) in New York City as part of the Music For Peace event. On this day, we sing Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah at 12:00 pm and join people all over the world in song, unity and healing. Join me and all my friends at the park in song for a once in a life time experience! Music provided by Peter Archer. For more information, visit: http://benitacharles.com.
Location: We're going to be near the 110th St. & Manhattan Ave. entrance of the park. When you walk down the stairs, we will be on the far left side. There's a lot of nice trees there.
About the Music For Peace Movement
The Music For Peace Movement is the brain-child of National touring solo artist, Marci Geller. Marci was inspired to create this event after watching a video of Rufus Wainwright with the Choir! Choir! Choir! singing Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah. She stated, "It not only brought tears to my eyes, it gave a momentary sense of belonging to something greater. It inspired me to want to keep putting out good energy and helping us all to heal." Thus, the Music For Peace Movement was born.
Concerts are scheduled around the world in New York, California, Tennessee, Canada, Ireland, and Mexico. They will be simultaneously live streamed to be viewed by hundreds of people around the world.

A beautiful evening at The Apollo Friday night - April 22nd!
A beautiful evening: There was an awesome tribute to Prince at The Apollo night! I met so many great people. The energy and love was incredible. I really needed this tonight. I haven't been great since I heard the news of Prince's death. His music just washed the pain away. That was the power of his music!! It was so much great music. The announced on the news today that he has a vault of unreleased music. I hope we're able to hear it. He has so much great music available to us. It's so incredible! His music truly gave me comfort tonight. He will truly be missed! WE LOVE YOU, PRINCE!!
