Evening Concert Celebrates Pride Month in Hawaiʻi

Members of the Gay Men’s Chorus of Honolulu speak to Evening Concert host Craig DeSilva about the power music has in promoting inclusion and diversity in our communities. They also talk about upcoming concerts and performances.

This classical music conversation aired on October 12, 2023. Evening Concert airs weekdays from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. on HPR-2.

Craig DeSilva is glad to be playing recorded music on the air instead of playing for a live audience on stage as did when he studied piano. He began piano lessons when he was a child and continued piano studies at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (where he majored in broadcast journalism and minored in music) under the late Peter Coraggio.
