This is the incredible story of Ryan Anthony, the renowned principal trumpet of the Canadian Brass and the Dallas Symphony Orchestra. Despite being diagnosed with a rare, terminal blood cancer and given just months to live, Ryan and his wife, Niki, started a charity called CancerBlows which organizes huge music concerts with the world”s greatest trumpet players, raising millions for cancer research and helping Ryan to live (and play) for another eight years! During that time, while undergoing treatment, he climbed Mt. Fuji with his oncologist to raise further funds and awareness for his disease, playing Amazing Grace at the summit as the sun rose.
”Song For Hope” is a story about living life to the fullest, about the unwavering strength and support of family and friends and about one man”s refusal to allow his affliction to affect his love of his art.
