'Two Etudes' of Courtney Bryan on February 3, 2013 Program at National Gallery of Art

This Little Light of Mine; Courtney Bryan; CDBaby.com
"a collection of re-compositions of Negro Spirituals with improvised performances by this amazing ensemble of New Orleans musicians... These spirituals suggest the themes of Justice, Rebellion, Redemption, and Hope."

Courtney Bryan

Composer Jeffrey Mumford adds that the February 3, 2013 concert at The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. will also include a composition of Courtney Bryan:

BTW, on the Feb 3rd concert, there will also be a performance of a work by former student of mine named Courtney Bryan, a young and very talented African-American composer/pianist, currently completing her Doctorate at Columbia University with George Lewis.

Her work, for solo piano, is entitled "Two Etudes"

Best,

J
