Title: "What The World Needs Now"
Description: College Senior Shelby Rassler was sent home from College due to the outbreak of the Coronavirus, and while devastated at the thought of missing her senior year - and all of the memories & experiences that typically come with it - she also missed her friends, and doing what she loves most - playing music! On her flight home to South Florida, Shelby had an idea and found a way to use technology to bring 73 people together to make that idea a reality via a magical rendition of Burt Bacharach's song "What the World Needs Now." You will hear from the woman behind the "magic" and why she was committed to producing, arranging and editing this virtual performance, performed by the Boston Conservatory at Berklee and Berklee College of Music. Remember, all of the participants - 73 - were quarantined in different locations, but through technology were brought together to produce this work.
- "Distance won't stop us from coming together to share some love." - Shelby Rassler
This is Shelby Rassler's bridge between herself, her classmates, us, and YOU! Enjoy.
