Roy Thomson Hall ( Toronto, Canada )
This fall, legendary singer-songwriter, philanthropist and political
activist Annie Lennox will headline the second annual Hope Rising! A Benefit
Concert for the Stephen Lewis Foundation presented by CIBC alongside Grammy
Award-winning recording artist Angelique Kidjo. This epic evening of music
and celebration takes place at Roy Thomson Hall in Toronto on Wednesday,
November 7 at 8:30 p.m. Again hosted by award-winning host of CBC’s ‘Q’
Jian Ghomeshi, this year’s benefit concert shines a celebratory spotlight
on the pivotal role and power of African women as they overcome tremendous
adversity and turn the tide of AIDS in Africa.
“As a passionate AIDS activist, I'm delighted to be performing at Hope
Rising!. I share the conviction of the Stephen Lewis Foundation that
community-based organizations in Africa, and particularly the women who are
at the heart of the grassroots response, are playing a critical role in
turning the tide of AIDS,” said Lennox. “I look forward to sharing the
evening with African grandmothers, Angelique, Stephen, and other friends to
shine a celebratory spotlight on the powerful work being done in Africa, and
the powerful message of hope it brings all of us!” | A********8 发帖数: 304 | | y*****g 发帖数: 1822 | 3 这个音乐会门票上星期卖不到四天就售光了, 555555 ....
