Get Together with Raffi
RAFFI was well known
in my house growing up. We had SINGABLE
SONGS and MORE SINGABLE SONGS by Raffi.
These albums were well used and often the background music for whatever
activity happened to be going on that day.
Raffi’s music has spanned decades beginning in 70’s (as you can see by
the styles in the video below) and continuing now that Raffi himself is his
70s. He was such a famous Canadian that
when Centre in the Square named the theatre portion of the venue the Raffi Armenian
Theatre, I thought it was for Raffi the Children’s performer I grew up hearing
about. It made sense to me as his name is Raffi and he is Armenian. It wasn’t until recent years that I learned
of the Symphony
Conductor Raffi Armenian. I guess it
shows what an impression RAFFI left on me! Either way, Raffi hopes to GET TOGETHER
with you and your family at the Raffi Armenian Theatre at Centre in the Square
on June 3, 2018.
Raffi is a singer,
songwriter, producer, author, lecturer, and tireless advocate for
children. He is best known for his work as a children’s entertainer and
advocate whose string of gold and platinum-selling recordings includes his
iconic song, “Baby Beluga”. Once called “the most popular children’s singer
in the English-speaking world” (Washington Post) and “Canada’s all-time
children’s champion” (Toronto Star), Raffi is also a recipient of the Order of
Canada and the United Nations’ Earth Achievement Award. He has published
three books for adults and holds four honorary degrees. He has never advertised
to children or made any commercial endorsements aimed at kids. His commitment
to treating his young fans with respect has changed society’s outlook on music
made for children.
