The evening was a joint benefit in support of PopsEd Programs at Ronald McDonald House® New York, which provide creative outlets to the children and families in residence. Hosted by Steven Reineke, Music Director of The New York Pops, the evening also featured performances by children participating in the PopsEd programs at Ronald McDonald House® New York, along with some special surprise guests. Since 2006 the PopsEd residency at Ronald McDonald House® New York has helped children fighting cancer discover their creative voice by teaching basic musical, creative writing and instrumental techniques. The multi-faceted program meets twice weekly and includes piano lessons and a choir, along with Rockin' the House, a special residency created for pre-teens and teenagers. Music lessons help children and families retain a sense of normalcy, nurturing emotional growth and well-being.
The New York Pops opens it's 32nd season with a celebration of the music of the Beatles featuring Finish Group Rajaton on October 24, 2014, 8PM at Carnegie Hall with Music Director Steven Reineke leading the orchestra.
