Hello Mr.Zick,
Always good to visit AfriClassical and see how much wonderful activity is going on in our musical world!
I wanted to share news of an upcoming performance in New York City; I will be playing at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall on February 16 at 2 pm. The program will feature works of Scarlatti, Schumann and works by American composers.
A
special work on the program is the Sonata No. 1 by George Walker, which I
played when I first performed in the hall 25 years ago. After I wrote Dr. Walker that I would be performing his music, he wrote me a lovely letter wishing me good luck on the performance - I was so touched and honored!
The
second half will also include Troubled Water by Margaret Bonds, one of
my favorites and a piece always well received by audiences.

and is featured at
AfriClassical.com, as is Margaret Allison Bonds (1913-1972), for whom a Works List has been compiled by Dr. Dominique-René de Lerma, http://www.CasaMusicaledeLerma.com]

2) Thanks, Bill. Please give my best wishes to Fredericka. I remember coming to New York to hear her recital when she played my Piano Sonata No. 1 and talking with her father. This was a fine performance. George [George Walker]
