In April 2002, Haruko Smith founded The September Concert Foundation for the sole purpose of organizing an annual citywide music festival in New York, �in remembrance of September 11th and a celebration of our universal humanity.� The September Concert will be held at 9 public parks throughout Manhattan: Merchant�s Gate in Central Park, the NY Public Library, Herald Square, Greeley Square, Madison Square Park, Tompkins Square, Washington Square, City Hall Park, and Union Square. At 2 pm, there will be a city-wide sing-along of this year�s anthem �I Believe in Music� by Mac David. (Last year�s anthem was �All You Need is Love� by the Beatles.)
Peter McDowell and Lilli Weisz will produce all NYC concerts, except for the Herald Square concert, which is being produced by Macy�s this year. Among the endorsers of the Concert are Con Edison, Gristedes Supermarket, NYC & Company, and Chancellor Joel Klein of the New York City Department of Education.
