Julio Racine, Haitian Composer Born Feb. 4, 1945, Has New Works, 'Agnus Dei' & 'Nap Travese'

[Julio Racine]

The Haitian composer, arranger and flutist Julio Racine (b. 1945) is profiled at AfriClassical.com. This week we asked him for news to announce on his birthday, which is Saturday. He told us of two new works, which we have added to his page at the website:

Hello Bill,
Thanks for thinking of me. Indeed I have a birthday coming up soon. Lately I have been concentrating on a Mass I am writing, Messe Breve. Attached is one movement Agnus Dei which you can post (Karine Margron is the soprano voice).

I just finished a simple song Nap Travese (We are going across). It's about Haiti's struggle.”
