A Stirring Tribute: Carmen Nickerson reads Solari’s “Meditation for my Country” During 9/11 Concert

Singer-songwriter Carmen Nickerson delivers a touching performance of Rose Solari's poem during her No Studios unplugged session

At approximately 42 minutes into the set, Nickerson pauses to acknowledge the date - September 11th - and pulls out a sheet of paper. The poem she reads is Rose Solari's "Meditation for my Country."
