Quintessential Quincy Jones

Be part of an unforgettable virtual musical celebration of the genius of Quincy Jones, while supporting a vital cause. He seamlessly wove together classic and contemporary sounds, creating iconic hits for artists ranging from Lesley Gore and Frank Sinatra to Michael Jackson and so many others. His unparalleled vision made him the renaissance man who was the choice for collaboration by countless musical legends, and the architect of some of the most memorable songs in history.

This is the 17th annual concert brought to you by Upstage Lung Cancer, an organization that uses the power of music and performing arts to fund crucial lung cancer research. Join us for a joyful experience filled with beloved songs like “It’s My Party and I’ll Cry If I Want To,” “Thriller,” “We Are the World,” and so many others. Emmy Award-winning Joyce Kulhawik will host the evening, guiding you through this musical journey. You’ll be treated to performances by a celebrated cast of artists, including Brian De Lorenzo, Hildy Grossman, Michael Hammond, Paula Markowicz, and Ramone Owens, along with the Follen Angels band. Guests include Francine Jacobson, MD, MPH and Lauren Coye. We honor The White Ribbon Project – Heidi and Pierre Onda with this year’s Fan Award for their outstanding work in lung cancer advocacy.
