Dear Friends of GHOSTLIGHT,

It is the height of summer and I hope you are taking some time to just be. I know, it is hard with our New York minds...likely trying to steel ourselves already for the fall.
All the wedding, baby, and vacation pictures on our social media sites are good reminders to celebrate the miracles of life and love, and to take the time to savor, recount and relive them so we can form memories that last.

However, as calm and still as the heat beckons us to be, August is also a time of transition. A time for lots of people to move before the new school year starts, taking on new jobs, going to new schools, etc. So it is that the Ghostlight family just said farewell to a beloved tenor who blessed us with his angelic voice for the last 15 years! He and his family moved to Japan this week and we will miss him greatly.

For those of you who are taking on a lot right now and are in the midst of organizing and cleaning out and packing up, no matter if you are taking on a new role, finding a new port, or entering a new phase in your life, here is a little gift to take a moment to remember where you've been, to treasure all that you have become, and to look forward to what will be.

With lots of love from GHOSTLIGHT,

Dr. Evelyn DeGraf

P.S. Meet us at our next concert, TORCHBEARER, in Mount Vernon on Saturday, October 17th, at 7pm, at St. Paul’s Church National Historic Site, when we remember the founding father of the American Choral Tradition, William Billings, and the significant October events of 1776.

“Without those events of October 250 years ago, and the hard times people lived through in this Westchester region during that whole period, it’s not hyperbole to say that none of what we have today exists.” - Robert Anderson

Stay tuned.

We have presented 50 programs in 15 years:
