Then she threw it to WNBC anchor Natalie Pasquarella, who was standing by at Neptune High School with the 25 kids from Scarlet Sound and their choir director, Erin Radvanski — known to students as “Ms. Rad.” NBC 4 New York/WNBC and Telemundo 47/WNJU narrowed the contestants down to three, then Halbert and Clarkson chose the winning choir.
NBC 4 and Telemundo 47 are donating $5,000 to the choir, an extracurricular program that relies on fundraising. Clarkson also said Balsam Hill, the company that decorates Rockefeller Center for the tree lighting, is donating another $5,000.Star Choir is open to youth singing groups from TV’s New York designated market area, which includes New York, New Jersey, Fairfield County, Connecticut and Pike County, Pennsylvania.
