Carpenters Memorial Tour
When I first heard the Carpenters sing as a child, I can still remember the first time I heard the Carpenters sing as a child, and I was captivated by their soft, enveloping harmonies. Karen's voice has become a "symbol of healing" for many of her fans, and her songs such as "Top of the World" and "Yesterday Once More" have been loved by people of all ages. In the 1970s, the Carpenters, a brother and sister duo, became stars with a string of hits in the U.S., Japan, and around the world. Even after Karen Carpenter's death in 1983 at the age of 32, the Carpenters' popularity has not diminished, and many fans continue to love their music today. In 1963, the Carpenters moved from New Haven, Connecticut to Downey, California. This is where Richard and Karen's musical lives took off. They began playing music locally and won the "Battle of the Bands" competition while in college. Eventually, they spread their wings as international stars.
