After Bass Baritone Kevin Devas sang the aria "I Made Me A Man" from Adolphus Hailstork Opera Rise for Freedom: The John P Parker Story
by Bass Baritone Kevin Devas during the 150th Anniversary 13th
Amendment Abolition of Slavery Concert, November 21, 2015 at DAR
Constitution Hall, Washington DC, composer Adolphus Hailstork was
introduced and asked to stand and be recognized by off camera host
Danyel Johnson. The response was slow building and grew louder as more
and more recognized that Adolphus Hailstork was actually present and
standing in the audience. Unfortunately, Dr. Hailstork did not read the
announcement for the location of the artist reception following the
concert. See his comment below:
Subject: Re: Artist reception - missed announcement.
Hi John,
So sorry I missed this announcement! Darn! I don't read e-mail enough and miss a lot.
Well
it is not too late to say thank you to you for the opportunity to be
included in your important program. At Constitution Hall!
Used
to attend concerts there as a student at Howard. Please pass on my
thanks to performers. I will try to reach them personally, also.
I hope we may meet again. I send good wishes for the continued success of your vital and necessary program.
Adolphus
