Catch my interview on KALW-SF this Sunday

3/29/2019

Sarah Cahill will hopefully not ask me to sight read that music behind her while on-air.
This Sunday at 8:00pm (Pacific Time), Oakland Symphony Chorus director Lynne Morrow and I will be guests on one of our local NPR stations, KALW 91.7 FM, to talk Mass for Freedom with Sarah Cahill on her classical music program, Revolutions Per Minute. Our interview is slated to run until 8:30, but if things are really cooking we might run as late as 9:00. 

If you don't live in the Bay Area (or even if you do), you can listen to the live stream on the KALW website.

If you're on the East Coast and just can't stay up that late, the show should be posted on the RPM webpage for the following week.

Support Accord's Release of "To Soar" on CD

3/20/2019

Accord Treble Choir (NYC) is releasing a new album, and it will feature my piece "To Soar in Freedom and in Fullness of Power" (text by Walt Whitman), which Accord beautifully premiered this past June. 

You can help support this very worthy endeavor by pre-ordering the album in digital download or CD via their IndieGogo campaign.  Donations of any amount are also accepted, and if you live in the New York area, you can also get tickets to their June concert (where I may have another new piece on the program—TBD), and other in-person perks. 

This will be the first-ever "official" recording of one of my choral pieces. Exciting, needless to say, and I hope you will join me in giving Accord some love as they launch this project in celebration of their 10th anniversary! 

Meanwhile, back in Oakland...

Only three-and-a-half weeks until the Oakland Symphony Chorus premieres Mass for Freedom!
Saturday April 13, 8:00pm at the First Congregational Church of Oakland. 
Buy tickets

​Hope to see you there.
