The prestigious Manhattan Symphonie, conducted by Gregory Singer, performs a concert in memory of the lives lost in New York City on Sept. 11, 2001, and the families and friends affected by the attacks on the World Trade Center. The concert is 7 p.m. at the New York Society for Ethical Culture, 2 W. 64th St. It is a concert of the Dvorak “New World” Symphony, an especially appropriate choice, since the composer wove in the diverse musical traditions of the New York City melting pot, including Native American, European, African-American and Asian influences. The presentation is part of the “Third 9/11 Circle Wind Memorial Concert” series. Tickets are $10 General Admission, and should be purchased in advance through Gregory Singer Fine Violins, (212) 724-4476,singerviolins.com, or by PayPal at sqmus.com.

R.I.P. To everyone who died, it was a sad day. 9/11 was a very tragic day. It brought us together and made us closer than ever as a nation. All of the brave men and women who helped in the enormous rescue attempt, I salute each and every one of you. There were over 2000 innocent people who died that day, that still gives me the chills thinking about it. Men and women died, to save the lives of others. Over 300 firefighters, dead. Cherish the day. Remember the memories.
