Soprano Malaika Sims Alvaro at last night's Destination & Travel Foundation Dinner and Dream Auction. |
Chubby Checker was also there, twisting again like he did last summer, in a dynamic performance sponsored by Branson Lakes Area Convention & Visitors Bureau. But the true highlight of the dinner -- which was held at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center in Washington, D.C. -- came courtesy of Destination DC, which as a tie-in to its new La Dolce DC promotion presented soprano Malaika Sims Alvaro. A native of DC who lives in New York City, Ms. Alvaro offered a version of "Quando M'en Vo" from Puccini's La boheme that, to my completely untrained ears, sounded beautiful. During his speech, Roger talked about the power of travel -- for business or pleasure or whatever other reason -- to expose us to new and wonderful things, and that performance last night certainly fit the bill.
