Donald Sauter Identifies Works of Justin Holland on Jan. 17, 2011 Video of Music School of Delaware

[Justin Holland]

AfriClassical.com profiles classical guitarist and composer Justin Holland (1819-1887). On Jan. 19 AfriClassical posted: “Works of Justin Holland Performed at Music School of Delaware Jan. 17 on YouTube.com.” The post said, in part: ““These selection from Holland’s 'Scraps From the Operas' are performed here by Christopher Braddock and Matthew Lavanish at The Music School of Delaware on 1.17.11. Special Thanks to Donald Sauter.”

AfriClassical has since received a message from Donald Sauter:
“Hello Mr. Zick,
There was a Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., & Black History Tribute concert given at the Music School of Delaware on Jan 14 2011. One of the sets on the program consisted of three of the twenty 'Scraps From The Operas' arranged for two guitars by Justin Holland:

“Oberon (Carl Maria von Weber)
Les Vepres Sicilliennes (Giuseppi Verdi)
Norma (Vincenzo Bellini)

“The guitarists were Christopher Braddock and Matthew Lavanish, and the performance has been put up on youtube at:
Enjoy!
Donald Sauter”
AfriClassical thanks Donald Sauter for identifying the works of Justin Holland which are performed on the video.
