Weizmann Day School (www.weizmann.net), New Horizon School (www.NewHorizonSchool.org), and St. Mark’s School (www.Saint-Marks.org) invite the community to attend their 7th annual interfaith Daniel Pearl “Harmony for Humanity” Concert on Tue., Oct. 12, at 11 AM.
The concert will take place on the Weizmann Day School campus located at 1434 N. Altadena Drive in Pasadena.
This special concert brings together Jewish, Muslim and Christian elementary school age children singing songs of peace and understanding.
This local concert is part of a global Daniel Pearl World Music Days event (www.danielpearlmusicdays.org <http://www.danielpearlmusicdays.org/> ) honoring journalist, Daniel Pearl, an accomplished musician, who was killed by terrorists on assignment in Pakistan in 2002.
Pearl’s tragically short life was spent in the pursuit of fellowship and understanding across cultures. This annual event, commemorating his October birthday, now includes over 4,900 performances across 102 countries including past performances by Barbra Streisand, REM, Peter Yarrow (of Peter, Paul & Mary) and The Bacon Brothers (Kevin Bacon’s band). The uniting theme is “Harmony for Humanity” to honor the legacy of Daniel Pearl through the musical medium he loved.
