Tonight on PBS: Memorial Day Concert

Posted on May 24, 2015 at 12:00 pm

On the eve of Memorial Day, PBS will broadcast a star-studded lineup for the annual Memorial Day concert and tribute to the military. For over 25 years, this multiple-award-winning television event has honored the military service and sacrifice of all our men and women in uniform, their families at home, and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.  The concert performers include Gloria Estefan, Laurence Fishburne, Esai Morales, Laura Benanti, the U.S. Army Chorus, and the U.S. Navy Band Sea Chanters.

The program will be hosted for the tenth year by Tony Award winner Joe Mantegna and Emmy Award winner Gary Sinise.
