Corp VP of Special Projects George Habel…… about the Nashville Songwriters at the DPAC.  CBC and WRAL-TV sponsored the event which benefited several local non-profits.  Habel attended the evening and shared his rave reviews in his blog Note to Self.  Here’s what he had to say:

What a surprise ending!!! Nashville Songwriters at DPAC concluded with Jessi Alexander on stage to perform her power ballad The Climb, a triple platinum hit for Miley Cyrus in 2009. Then, the curtain was raised to reveal her accompaniment – the Kidznotes orchestra!

Kidznotes was a beneficiary of the evening’s proceeds, so this was a most meaningful finale for the performers, the kidz and the audience.

Capitol Broadcasting Company and WRAL TV were media sponsors. We were accompanied by 94.7 WQDR. Thanks to Don Curtis at Curtis Media and President Trip Savery for getting behind this unique event.

The benefit concert began in a high school cafeteria and has graduated to the DPAC. Another round of applause for the impresario, Jeff Outlaw!
