SFTCdetailsWhat is 'Sing for the Cure' ?

 

 
SFTC
Sing for the Cure
 an uplifting and positive musical experience, tells the stories of breast cancer survivors, their families and friends.

 This world-renowned choral work with orchestra and narration has moved and delighted thousands with its examination of the fears, trials, and even the humor of
dealing with breast cancer.

An emotionally charged and powerful work, it was commissioned in 2000 by
Susan G. Komen for the Cure® as a result of founder and CEO Nancy Brinker's belief that more people would listen to the message if it was delivered through the powerful
medium of music.


Sing for the Cure had its world premiere in June 2000 and featured poet laureate Maya Angelou as narrator.

Today, Sing for the Cure's universal message of hope continues to transcend cultural, language, and political barriers even as a cure is still being sought.
