Rock Musicians Rufus Wainwright, Ben Folds, Tim Reynolds and More Lend Their Voices to Free Virtual Concert for Colorectal Cancer Awareness
The American College of Gastroenterology offers an open invitation to all to enjoy a free virtual event, “Tune It Up: A Concert To Raise Colorectal Cancer Awareness,” on Thursday, March 31, 2022 at 8 pm EDT featuring dynamic performances by a talented collective of musicians.
The virtual concert includes messages from celebrity cancer advocate Katie Couric and performances by notable stars such as Rufus Wainwright and Ben Folds, along with a group of musicians from a wide range of genres who all donated their time and performances to support colorectal cancer awareness efforts. ACG’s goal is to tap the connection and energy that music creates to shine a light on the importance of colorectal cancer screening and prevention.
This free event is open to all for an evening of rock, jazz, hip-hop, Broadway, and classical music performed by acclaimed musicians. The concert includes performances and special video appearances, including introductions to several performances from Jamie Bernstein (author, narrator, filmmaker, and daughter of Leonard Bernstein) and actors from The Mandalorian and Mad Men.
