Nursing alumnus Jonell Robles and the Northwell Health Nurse Choir on 'America's Got Talent'

UPDATE: The Northwell Health Nurse Choir made it to the semifinals, scheduled to air on September 7!

Jonell Robles (BSN 鈥13, MSN 鈥19) is an Assistant Nurse Manager on a surgical telemetry unit at Lenox Hill Hospital, one of 23 hospitals in the聽Northwell Health system, New York State鈥檚 largest healthcare provider and private employer. The New Milford, N.J., native transferred from Bergen Community College to 69色情视频 in the fall of 2011 for his junior year and received his bachelor of science in nursing in May 2013, returning for graduate studies and earning a master of science in nursing in 2019.

Robles also is one of the 18-member Northwell Health Nurse Choir that auditioned recently on “America鈥檚 Got Talent” (AGT) and, after an overwhelming response from the show鈥檚 judges, will get a shot at the big prize. We caught up with Robles after the initial audition, which can be viewed here:

How did this Nurse Choir come about and how did you get an audition for AGT?聽

The choir was brought together virtually for a 2020 Thanksgiving Day fundraiser called 鈥楴urse Heroes Live.鈥 We met for the first time in-person in March 2020. Our virtual performance for 鈥楴urse Heroes Live鈥 caught the eye of someone in Hollywood. Through this performance, the Northwell Health Nurse Choir was invited to audition for the upcoming season (season 16) of America鈥檚 Got Talent.

How was the music you performed selected?

Northwell has been supportive, and surrounded us with all of the tools we needed to succeed on AGT. We have been working with an amazing vocal producer who crafted the mash up of 鈥淪tand by Me/Lean on Me.鈥 It was a perfect song choice for the group. It is amazing how the power of music can bond us together. When we stand by and continue to support and lean on each other, we come out stronger than ever.聽We know we can get through and do anything.

What was going through your mind when you folks took the stage? And were you surprised when [AGT judge] Howie Mandell hit the golden buzzer for an automatic trip to the live show?

I was incredibly excited we made it to America鈥檚 Got Talent, but nervous at the same time. Just taking it all in – the stage, the lights, the cameras, the panel of judges. Before we performed in front of the judges, we had to channel what we experienced the past year, the lyrics of the song, and the message we wanted to convey to the world.聽As frontline workers, we went through an absolute challenging and stressful year.聽When we were at our lowest moments, music was always there to support and uplift us, giving us the healing and comfort that we needed.聽We wanted to show America that despite the pain, we know there is a light at the end of the tunnel and things will be okay.聽Singing and dancing on stage with my friends felt so incredible 鈥 it was an absolute joy!

Initially, I did not want to anticipate or get my hopes up.聽However, after hearing the judges鈥 comments, Howie hitting the golden buzzer was absolutely incredible. Gold confetti filling the air 鈥 it was such an emotional experience.聽Everyone hugging, jumping up and down, celebrating, tears of joy falling. It was truly an unforgettable moment shared with my friends.

Did you previously have any singing experience?

I grew up singing in the church and at school, both as a soloist and a choir member, including the Bayanihan Filipino Seventh Day Adventist Church Choir, the New Milford High School Choir, New Jersey Bergen County Choir, North Jersey Regions Mixed Choir, and the New Jersey All State Mixed Choir.

Now what happens?

Since we received the Golden Buzzer from Howie, we are going straight to the live shows in Hollywood聽this August.聽We are very excited to return to California.聽To get more updates and exciting things we have planned, stay tuned and follow our journey on @northwellhealthnursechoir on Instagram.
