The group is holding its decades-old Cerebral Palsy Benefit Concert Sunday, Oct. 19 at 3 p.m. in the Tilles Center at LIU Post.
All proceeds go to the Cerebral Palsy Association of Nassau County, an amount that Orchestra Director Louis Panacciulli hopes will exceed the last event’s donation of $30,000.
“100% of the proceeds go directly to the Cerebral Palsy Association.”The Frank Sinatra-themed concert, Sinatra and Stories, will feature the 70-piece orchestra accompanying performer Tony Danza, who will sing Sinatra covers and tell stories of his time with the star.
What can we do that will make a difference on Long Island that we don’t see other orchestras doing?’” Panacciulli continued.
“I have an emotional attachment to the cause because my mother was part of the Cerebral Palsy Auxiliary in Valley Stream,” Panacciulli said.
