[Along The Western Shore; Althea Waites, pianist; Althea Waites and Mark Uranker, duo-pianists; Cambria CD-1141 (2003)] 

Earlier this year we had the pleasure of interviewing pianist Althea Waites, http://AltheaWaites.com, whose 2003 CD Along The Western Shore is shown above.  Here are excerpts from an email message we received from her yesterday.  She discusses her participation in the 150th Anniversary Emancipation Proclamation Concert on Sept. 22, 2012.  Althea also provides the program for her recital Sept. 23, 2012 at California State University Long Beach:

"I hope that all is well with you and that you are enjoying the few remaining days of summer.  I'm sure you have been in touch with John Malveaux, the director of MusicUNTOLD, and his Emancipation Proclamation concert at the AT&T Theater in Los Angeles on 9/22.  I will be playing for George Shirley and Nokuthula Ngwenyama for the event."
