I’ve seen the exhibit and it is on a par with Carnegie Hall’s earlier exhibit on Lenny’s formative years. This exhibit in particular actually feels like you are in the room with him, or, more accurately, for an instance, that he never left. The video of the original WEST SIDE STORY cast performing “Cool” begs a visit all on its own. Bravo Gino.
Ciao Gino, complimenti per tutto il lavoro che hai fatto per il museo, hai avuto una brillante idea quel giorno che decidesti di occuparti della storia di Carnegie Hall’s, hai costruito qualcosa che rimarrĂ nel tempo, puoi andare orgoglioso. Sono passati diversi anni dall’ultima volta che ci siamo visti (15 anni), non ti ho riconosciuto subito sul video, bravo Gino. Guido
Lavoro grandioso! Siamo orgogliosi di te.
Ancora un abbraccio da tutti noi
