[Joe]

Hayley will be a special guest at the Lauri Stauss Leukemia Foundation benefit concert at Carnegie Hall, NYC, on Monday, November 8, 2004 at 7:30PM. Here's the link...http://www.lslf.org/concert.html

I can't confirm yet but Hayley might also be at Carnegie Hall on October 22. Anyone have more info?

UPDATE...Hayley is no longer listed as a guest at the benefit on Nov. 8. However Hayley IS scheduled to appear at Carnegie Hall with the NY Pops on October 22.

All we know at the moment is that she will be there on October 22nd. No further information has yet come through.

As soon as we know more, we'll let everyone know.

Hi Joe, the link you provided did at one stage list Hayley as appearing on November 8 - but when you check the page now, Hayley is no longer mentioned.

Hayley's official site has just announced Hayley will be appearing on October 22. November 8 isn't listed.

[Joe]

Thanks Gerrit for the info. Glad the official site has listed the dates and cities for the Boston Pops and Holiday Pops. I'll try to get a list of the specific venues soon.

So... Hayley sang last night at Carnegie Hall, yes? Who amongst you (out there in cyberspace) had the good fortune to go?

I was not so lucky as to be able to attend, but I am looking forward to experiencing the concert vicariously through your reports! How did the audience respond to Hayley's performance? I'll bet that they were swept away by the awesome range of her voice!

Did Hayley receive any standing ovation? She certainly would deserve such a reception.

So... do tell! The rest of us would love to hear all about it. (Meanwhile... waiting quite impatiently for November to arrive, so that people in the USA can watch Hayley in the Great Performances concert which is slated to be broadcast on our PBS network.)

I was there. Great concert -- possibly her best ever. Her voice was beyond beautiful.
