AfriClassical was pleased to hear from pianist William Chapman Nyaho today:

“I am presently in Kingston, Jamaica, by invitation of the US Embassy.

I will be performing a recital with Jamaican violinist Steven Woodham.

“We gave a masterclass and short performance at the Edna Manley College,

School of Music, Kingston, Jamaica on Wednesday April 28th. Steven Woodham and I are performing works by Beethoven, Shchedrin, Piazolla, Gershwin-Heifetz and Paganini at the US Embassy tonight.

“Distinguished Jamaican violinist Steven Woodham has performed in the Caribbean, Europe, Canada and the USA and has appeared as soloist in many university orchestras and touring chamber orchestras. He dedicates much of his time and energy to music education as a private tutor and as artist-in-residence and conductor of the Immaculate Conception High School Symphony Orchestra in Kingston, Jamaica.
