>> NARRATOR: MUCH OF WHO WE ARE IS WHERE WE COME FROM.
I COME FROM FREEWAY MAZES AND THE DANCE OF DAILY TRAFFIC.
FROM MYRIADS OF MURALS PULSING THROUGHOUT THE STREETS, THE LIGHTS OF DOWNTOWN L.A. BEAMING FROM MILES AWAY.
IT'S A LIGHTHOUSE OF HOPE.DISTAE TO THE HARDWORKING.ESPERANZA.
THE GROUNDBREAKING.
THE COMMUNITY BUILDING.TRABAJAD, THE FEELING OF ALWAYS HAVINGSENN SOMEPLACE TO GO.R A DONDE IR.
GLIDING DOWN THE L.A. RIVER.EL , GLIDING PAST THE RISING HEARTS OF SKID ROW.
UP TO CHAVEZ RAVINE, ACROSS THEA SIXTH STREET BRIDGE.STORIAS DE Y A SYMPHONY OF STORIES.
OF WHO WE ARE AND HOW WE HAVE CHOSEN TO LIVE.
TO EXPRESS THE ART OF CONNECTINA DESPITE DISTANCES.
OVER MIRACLE MOUNTAINS AND DAZZLING OCEANS.EXPRESAR EL ARTE TO THE PALMDALE DESERTS WHEREILS OUR ANGELS STILL SING ALMDALE MELTING POT THAT BRINGS OURA N .
VOICES TOGETHER.
THE LIGHT TAP DANCING OF LOVERSU FOR THOSE WHO DISCOVER NEWE HILLTOP SCENES, TO THE CHILDREN HUMMING TO THE BEAT OF THEIR OWN DREAMS.DESDE FILIPINO TOWN HASTA FROM FILIPINO TOWN TO SUNSET.
TO THE COMMUTERS WHO DRIFT ON TRACKS OF PUBLIC TRANSIT.
FOR 63 YEARS, WE HAVE CHEERED FOR ALL OF THOSE INSPIRED TO BE HERE.
AND COLLABORATING AGAINST ADVERSITY, AND EMBRACING OUR DIVERSITY.
THIS IS THE TRADITION THAT MAKES US, L.A. COUNTY, DIFFERENT.POR N >> OH, WHAT'S UP, LOS ANGELES?.
I AM RAUL HERRERA JR., AND THAT, WAS MY ODE TO L.A. COUNTY.
FOR YOU, FOR THE PEOPLE LIKE MEO FOR THE PEOPLE LIKE ALL OF US.
I JUST WANT TO WELCOME EVERYONE TO THE HOLIDAY CELEBRATION.

I BELIEVE THAT EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THE CHILDREN DESERVE TO HAVE MUSIC IN THEIR LIVES.
>> SINGING JUST MAKES ME FEEL GOOD.
>> SINGING IS EVERYTHING.
>> CHOIR -- IT'S A WAY OF LIFE.
>> I'VE FORMED "OUR LADY OF THE ANGELS CHILDREN'S CHORUS" IN ORDER FOR ME TO BRING TWO DIFFERENT CHOIRS TOGETHER AND IN ORDER FOR US TO CREATE A BIGGER BEAUTIFUL SOUND.
>> I LIKE SINGING LOUD AND I LIKE PEOPLE HEARING ME SING LOUD, BECAUSE I LOVE MY VOICE.
>> MY FAVORITE THING TO DO IS PERFORMING WITH THE CHOIR.
>> IT'S IMPORTANT TO NURTURE YOUNG STUDENTS IN TERMS OF TEACHING THEM MUSIC, BECAUSE IT DEVELOPS THEIR SELF-CONFIDENCE.
>> I DIDN'T WANT TO JOIN CHOIR BECAUSE I WAS SO SCARED, I WAS THE MOST NERVOUS PERSON ANYONE HAS EVER MET.
AND NOW THAT I'M A SENIOR, EVERYONE IS LIKE "HOW DO YOU HAVE SO MUCH CONFIDENCE?"
I'M JUST LIKE, "YOU SHOW UP EVERYDAY, BECAUSE YOU LOVE IT SO MUCH."
>> CHOIR'S HELPED ME FEEL MORE IN TOUCH WITH ME, WHAT I WANT TO BE.
>> TO SEE THEIR TRANSFORMATION MAKES ME REALLY PROUD.
I JUST DON'T CONSIDER THEM AS MY STUDENTS, HONESTLY I CONSIDER THEM AS MY OWN CHILDREN.
AS A CHOIR TEACHER, I THINK MY DUTY IS TO REALLY CHALLENGE THOSE KIDS.
YOU CAN'T UNDERESTIMATE THE CAPABILITIES OF THE CHILDREN, BECAUSE IF YOU SET A GOAL FOR THEM THEY WILL REALLY SHOW YOU THAT THEY CAN DO IT.

THE MUSIC CENTER'S ANNUAL HOLIDAY CELEBRATION IS PART OF MY FATHER'S LEGACY.
WHEN DOROTHY CHANDLER CAME TO MY FATHER, SUPERVISOR KENNY HAHN, ASKING FOR SUPPORT TO BUILD THE MUSIC CENTER, MY DAD SAID HE WOULD SUPPORT THE PROJECT UNDER ONE CONDITION THAT THIS NEW CENTER BE COMPLETELY FREE TO THE PUBLIC, INCLUDING PARKING, ONE DAY A YEAR EVERY YEAR.
AND THAT WAS HOW THE HOLIDAY CELEBRATION WAS BORN.
FOR THE PAST 63 YEARS, THIS ANNUAL PROGRAM HAS BECOME SUCH AN IMPORTANT PART OF SO MANY FAMILIES' HOLIDAY TRADITIONS INCLUDING MINE.
I REMEMBER WHEN THE PROGRAM STRETCHED TO 12 HOURS LONG AND MY DAD USED TO AUDITION THE ACTS IN HIS OFFICE.
MY SCHOOL CHOIR EVEN PERFORMED WHEN I WAS IN JUNIOR HIGH.
OVER THE YEARS, THE EVENT HAS CHANGED WITH THE TIMES, BUT IT'S STILL ON CHRISTMAS EVE AND IT'S STILL FREE FOR EVERYONE.
THERE ARE SO MANY GREAT PERFORMANCES IN STORE FOR YOU TODAY WHETHER YOU ARE JOINING IN PERSON OR WATCHING FROM HOME.
I WANT TO WISH YOU MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY HOLIDAYS.
>> THANK YOU SUPERVISOR HAHN.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE] >> TAP DANCE IS UNIQUE.
THERE'S NOTHING IN THE WORLD LIKE IT.
I STARTED REVERB TAP COMPANY BECAUSE I WANTED TO FORM A COMMUNITY WHERE EVERYONE WAS ACCEPTED -- DIDN'T MATTER YOUR BACKGROUND, YOUR RACE, YOUR WEIGHT, YOUR SIZE, YOUR LOOK.
THERE IS A SPACE FOR YOU TELL YOUR STORY AND A SPACE TO JUST BE YOU.
THE HISTORY OF TAP DANCE IS A FORM OF COMMUNICATION, IT'S PASSING DOWN INFORMATION, IT'S PASSING DOWN STORIES.
>> YOU EXPRESS YOUR EMOTION WITH THE RHYTHM THROUGH YOUR WHOLE BODY.
>> I REALLY GO TO ANOTHER REALM, LIKE I DON'T THINK I'M ON EARTH ANYMORE.
IT'S SUCH A HIGH I DON'T WANT TO COME DOWN FROM.
>> WHEN YOU LISTEN TO A CHOIR AND YOU HEAR EVERYBODY LOCK INTO A HARMONY AND IT'S SO PERFECT AND IT RESONATES.
WHEN TAP DANCE LOCKS INTO THAT DOWNBEAT AND EVERYONE LOCKS IN TOGETHER AS AN ENSEMBLE IT HAS THAT SAME RUSH FOR EVERYONE.
WHETHER YOU'RE THE ONE DANCING OR YOU'RE IN THE AUDIENCE AND YOU'RE ENJOYING, YOU FEEL THE ELECTRICITY.
I HOPE THAT THE DANCERS THAT WALK INTO THIS SPACE THEY LEAVE BETTER.
THAT THE LESSONS THEY'VE LEARNED, THE RHYTHMS THAT WERE IMPRINTED ON THEM, NEVER LEAVES THEM.
IT WAS AND IS NEVER ABOUT THE DANCE ITSELF, BUT IT'S ABOUT THE COMMUNITY, IT'S ABOUT THE CONVERSATION AND IT'S ABOUT THE GROWTH AS HUMAN BEINGS AND AS A SOCIETY THROUGH ART.
"GOOD."
>> WOW!
PERSONAL AND WELL TRAINED, THESE ARTISTS HAVE WON NUMEROUS AWARDS FOR THEIR ARTISTRY AND PERFORMANCE!
BUT IT IS THEY ARE DEEPLY ROOTED LOVE FOR THE ART OF TAP IN THE COMMUNITY SURROUNDS IT WHICH MAKES IT SO SPECIAL.
IN FACT, THESE MULTITALENTED ARTISTS WORK TOGETHER TO CREATE THEIR COSTUMES, PRODUCTION DESIGN, AND CHOREOGRAPHY FOR THEIR SULFUR TO SHOW ALL WE GOT LIFE OF THE AMERICAN TEENAGER.
A BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF THE POWER OF COLLABORATION IN THE ARTS.
