On Saturday, residents of Newtown, CT., urged Morristown to make the “Sandy Hook Promise,” to honor victims of December’s elementary school massacre by pressing for common-sense laws and policies to prevent future gun violence.
My Beautiful Town was among the touching moments of the presentation at the Presbyterian Parish House.
Written by a Newtown resident, the song was performed by Morristown High School girls (including a recent winner of Morristown’s Got Talent!) and conducted by Nancy Bangiola, an accomplished singer with the Harmonium Choral Society and a member of the Morris Area Committee to Reduce Gun Violence.
The girls learned the song quickly. See the video above. And stay tuned for more coverage.
