It is confirmed, Brian Stokes Mitchell, a Tony Award winner, will sing ¨The Impossible Dream¨  from Man of La Mancha, the show based on the novel Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes at  Sen. Edward Kenned´s ¨private¨ memorial tonight , which will be held at the JFK Library and Museum in Boston.

Also speaking are: Vice President Joseph R. Biden, Senator John F. Kerry, Senator John McCain, Senator Orrin Hatch, Governor Deval L. Patrick, Congressman Joseph P. Kennedy II and Caroline Kennedy.

The song choice is moving because its a reminder of  one of Senator Kennedy’s most notable speeches: his address to the Democratic National Convention in 1980, in which he conceded his campaign for nomination as the Democratic Presidential candidate against incumbent Jimmy Carter.
