Dream' Benefit

Tuesday, August 3, 2010; Posted: 04:08 PM - by Genevieve Rafter Keddy

Last night, August 2, audiences at Joe's Pub took a musical road trip across the country in Free to Dream, an evening

devoted to the songs of Katsaros and Schermerhorn. Featuring an all-star Broadway cast including Rent star Anthony

Rapp and Avenue Q's John Tartaglia and Stephanie D'Abruzzo, Free to Dream showcased the people and places that

make up the fabric of America; from country, rock and pop, to swing and the blues. Proceeds from Free to Dream

benefit The New York Pops' education programs, which bring music to thousands of public schoolchildren across the

five boroughs of New York City. The evening was hosted by The New York Pops Music Director Steven Reineke, and

featured the Camp Broadway Kids, as well as the voice of Willard Scott as ‘DJ Sam.'

For nearly a decade, Grammy-winning composer Doug Katsaros and Emmy-nominated lyricist William Schermerhorn

have been writing songs for national audiences as part of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade®, Macy's 4th of July

Fireworks® and other notable events. In addition to the title song "Free to Dream," highlights of the August 2 concert

program included the original songs "It's All About Tonight," "Beneath a Summer Sky," "Gift of Light," and "Sing Another Day."

BroadwayWorld was on hand to capture the concert, and brings you photo coverage below.
