Francisco Núñez Honored with MacArthur "Genius" Award


Francisco Núñez, Director of the Young People's Chorus of New York City, is a 2011 MacArthur Fellow. As a Fellow, he receives a $500,000 grant. The program's recipients are popularly known as "geniuses." 

Núñez and the Young People's Chorus were part of the day-long concert series on September 9, 2011 that was part of Trinity's observance of the 10th anniversary of 9/11. He also participated in the last concert of the evening, "Remember to Love," which featured conductors and members of the choirs who performed throughout the day. You can watch that concert here:
