Video: Wow...an amazing male soprano - Pascal Toussaint (post from Joyce's Desk)

This morning as I was driving to pick up some new brochures at the printer, I was listening to KQED's Forum, and suddenly this amazing voice started singing. Michael Krasny was interviewing Amy Tan (author of "The Joy Luck Club") and a new emerging singer that she had discovered in a Parisian cabaret. Pascal Toussaint sang "Amazing Grace" that just blew my mind. Click below to listen to the interview...fast forward to 5:24 and just listen to his voice...then at 6:10 where he sings a capella.



After listening to the show, I couldn't wait to get home to look him up on YouTube. Below are a few videos that are just incredible...just close your eyes and listen.


The last 1 minute will blow you away.

VIDEO: Consequence: Now's the Time for Us to Lead



"There is no doubt that green jobs are the future. There is no dispute that global warming is real, and that if we fail to act the consequences will be dire. President Obama declared "Now is the time for us to lead" on climate change.

Now is also the time for our generation to lead on climate change. Youth must lead because we have the most to lose. If progress is blocked by old political forces and special interests, we will be the ones facing the consequences. "
