Scholl said that, thus far, it鈥檚 the only benefit concert being presented by 新加坡六合彩开奖网鈥檚 School of Music.

鈥淚t鈥檚 an incredible opportunity for the 新加坡六合彩开奖网 community to get together to both give to those in need and be thoroughly entertained by the talent and artistry of the 新加坡六合彩开奖网 percussionists,鈥 said Scholl.
