Announcing the Winner of KDFC’s Star Spangled Sing-Off 2017!

RadioPrograms

Congratulations to Antoinette Bush! She’s the winner of KDFC’s Star Spangled Sing-Off 2017! She’ll perform the National Anthem live from the pitcher’s mound at AT&T Park at Opera at the Ballpark for the San Francisco Opera’s free simulcast of Mozart’s Don Giovanni on Friday, June 30th, 7:30pm. Learn more about the event and register for early entry to the ballpark here.

See Antoinette’s winning audition below:

Antoinette Bush is an Oakland native with a lifelong passion for singing. Antoinette says “I am thrilled to be auditioning for my favorite radio station! I love KDFC and I have been listening to classical music since I was a little girl. That is probably what started my classical music adventure. I started singing and playing classical piano at the age of 4. My Mum would tell me that if I couldn’t sing or hum, I would whistle. It drove her crazy but she soon realized that there was something that she should pay attention to. I am an alumnus of the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. I started there at the age of 15. The youngest ever to be enrolled in the college program. Needless to say, I have performed with various opera companies in the bay area and still today I have been blessed with the gift of being able to produce something that people admire and love. Opera is the most beautiful music in the world and I am honored to be able to sing and give something back to the world.”
