Hello everyone. In my opera, Cinderella, there is a song called The Star of Hope that could have been written exactly for these troubled times, because it is about not giving up hope, even in times of darkness.

My sister Helen and I are not real singers, but we thought we would sing it to help cheer everyone up.  I also had the idea that we could create a Choir of Hope, where people from all over the world could sing or play this song. 

A huge thank you to everyone who sent me their own recordings of the song. And an even huger thank you to the amazing Sivan Zusin (sivan.zusin@gmail.com) who prepared such a wonderful mix and video from the individual contributions. You can also listen to many of the individual contribution on this PLAYLIST.

Last summer I also prepared a piano solo arrangement of 'The Star of Hope" for my album,

From my Book of Melodies (Sony Classical). You can listen to it here

Stay safe and healthy!
