Yannick plays America for the space launch
NewsThere’s no publicity like space publicity.
Press release from Philadelphia:
(Philadelphia, August 26, 2022)—On Monday, August 29, a performance of “America the Beautiful” by Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin and The Philadelphia Orchestra, with legendary cellist Yo-Yo Ma, will air during NASA’s pre-launch broadcast event ahead of the Artemis I launch. The performance was pre-recorded and will air at approximately 6:38 AM ET across all of NASA’s digital platforms: NASA TV, nasa.gov, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Twitch, Dailymotion.
The launch event will also include celebrity appearances by Jack Black, Chris Evans, and Keke Palmer, as well as a special performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner” by Josh Groban and Herbie Hancock.
America spend money on a space launch.
People are homeless nobody cares.
Thank you for bringing this injustice to the fore….!!
Please, arrêtez de l’ appeler Yannick … à moins que vous ne le connaissiez personnellement.
Vous frisez l’ impolitesse.
Oui, oui, biên vrais.
Merci
Yankee Doodle went to town
A-riding on a pony,
Stuck a feather in his cap
And called it macaroni.
Billy Boy: ‘That’s precisely what we are. We are proud of it.’
Only in America.
I would be surprised, if this event didn`t get Woke.
I don’t know that it’s still the case, but the 76ers, Philadelphia’s basketball team, used to play a video of YNS and the Philadelphians performing the Star Spangled Banner before each game.
Like it or not, Yannick is America’s conductor.
Who else could fill that role today?
Not any American, not a single one anywhere in the world has his status.
Certainly none of the conductors of the Big Five + LA + SF + Pittsburgh. They’re too foreign. Even Salonen remains foreign after all these decades in the US.
It’s Yannick by miles.
John Williams.
I agree that
Yannick Nézet- Séquin is THE BEST! But please be aware that he is CANADIAN (through and through).
