Patrick D. McCoy: 'Stephen Salters was featured soloist with The Washington Chorus' in 'New Music for a New Age'

[Stephen Salters (Lisa Kohler)]

Patrick D. McCoy tells AfriClassical:
"Baritone Stephen Salters was featured soloist with The Washington Chorus for their 'New Music for a New Age' concert presenting the music of Elena Ruehr, including the DC premieres of 'Cricket, Spider, Bee,' 'Gospel Cha Cha,' and the world premiere of 'Alverno' conducted by Julian Wachner.

"The large diverse audience was amazing! The audience was large and quite diverse, thanks to the lectures hosted by The Washington Chorus in partnership with Coalition for African Americans in the Performing Arts, providing Ruehr the opportunity to share her work with students at Howard University and the University of the District of Columbia, among others."
