Concert
Producer/TV Director Dallas Tanner announced that his production
company will release a special commerative DVD concert in time for the
5th year memory of the US national tragedy of "9.11". Dallas Tanner
produced a special concert in Las Vegas weeks after the 9.11 tragedy
which featured performances by national musicians, Las Vegas Headliners,
and civic and religious leaders in a patriotic concert called "One
Nation Under God". The concert was one of many national televised
concerts and tributes which featured America's top musicians as they
came together to pay tribute to the fallen heroes of 9.11. In 2002,
Dallas Tanner was invited to appear and replay the concert on wide
screen television sets at a "9.11" commerative event held at the Richard
Nixon Library in Yorba Linda, CA. Copies of the program were also
delivered to the White House in 2002. The original concert got great
reviews on many media outlets and television shows and was heralded as a
"touching event filled with standing ovations and many warm tears".
While the collapsed world trade center was still smoldering in 2001,
promoter/producer Dallas Tanner arranged to have 22 Firefighters flown
in to the concert directly from the World Trade Center and the heroic
firefighters lined the front rows of the concert and were invited to
speak for the first time about their feelings about the tragedy. Music
featured at the live concert held in Las Vegas in 2001 included
emotional performances by Las Vegas Headliner Clint Holmes, Nashville
Recording star Natalie Grant, and a taped release of the very fitting
performance by Enrique Iglesias's with the hit song "Hero". US Senator
John Ensign also provided a very moving statement for the original
broadcast. The patriotic tribute concert was titled "One Nation Under
God" and was produced and directed by Hollywood TV director Dallas
Tanner.
The director Dallas Tanner remembers the event well and wants to make
sure the country does not forget this tragedy as well..." the event was
one we all will not forget, I dont think that there was a dry eye in the
place, it was without a doubt the most important and gratifying event I
have ever produced and when the heroic firefighters from the world
trade center were brought to the stage, their ovation lasted for well
over 5 minutes". The DVD will be reproduced with new interviews with
firefighters from the World Trade center tragedy, as well as as
reflections by top musicians, and government leaders in America. The not
for profit DVD will be available for sale on Amazon.com and through
book stores and music stores by Summer, 2006.
