For the past few weeks, I have been rehearsing a series of songs, a tribute to the late Desi Arnaz, who together with his wife Lucille Ball, starred in the iconic sitcom I Love Lucy.
Desi played Ricky Ricardo, a band leader and singer at the fictitious Tropicana Night Club in the New York City of the 1950s.
So, channeling Desi (Ricky), and with the help of a talented pianist, Rick Unterberg, I will film a 15-minute video in which we tell a story and sing three of Desi's best known songs. Obviously, this is all for fun and to get as many of you to contribute to the SND Foundation and its good deeds.
Don't contribute based on my musical talent, please. I have been posting various videos of rehearsals, etc. Remember this is to support the ambitions of young future visual journalists. The musical video honoring the great Desi Arnaz will be filmed tomorrow. If you like what you hear, make your contributions here

Counting on you.
