Apollo & Psyche - An Evening of Music for One Mind at Carnegie Hall

Hosted by One Mind at New York City's renowned Carnegie Hall, Apollo & Psyche blended music, storytelling, and dance in support of mental health advancement. Inspired by Apollo, the god of music, dance, and healing, and Psyche, the goddess of the mind and soul, Apollo & Psyche honored the timeless connection between healing and the arts. The evening brought together world-class performers and passionate advocates to celebrate resilience, renewal, and the human spirit, while uniting a community of friends and partners who are passionate about mental health.

Apollo & Psyche was punctuated by poignant moments, including performances set to iconic songs like “The Sound of Music,” “The Sound of Silence,” and “If I Can Dream,” all artistically reimagined under Artistic Director Elaine Kwon’s direction. With JD Roberto as the charismatic Master of Ceremonies and the visionary Elaine Kwon on piano, joined by percussionist Dan Weiner and trumpeter Marshall Kearse, Apollo & Psyche guided attendees along a journey through emotional landscapes—from Joy and Solitude to Growth and Renewal. The evening’s showcase featured dynamic performances by acclaimed Broadway artists Carrie St. Louis and Akron Watson, the electrifying talents of Freestyle Love Supreme (Andrew Bancroft, Aneesa Folds, and Kaila Mullady), mesmerizing dance by Austin Kelly and Jessica Ferretti of the Paul Taylor Dance Company, and stirring spoken word by mental health advocate Hakeem Rahim.

At the event, One Mind CEO, Kathy Pike, and One Mind Chief Advocacy and Engagement Officer, Brandon Staglin, presented the One Mind Leadership Award to Bank of America in honor of their leadership and partnership in advancing mental health initiatives. David Tyrie, President of Marketing, Digital and Specialized Consumer Client Solutions accepted the award on behalf of Bank of America.
