Thank
you to all of you who attended one of our sold-out concerts last
month! It was a joy to have you join us for a vibrant celebration of the
remarkable Dr. Valerie Capers - from the surprise Fanfare for an Uncommon Woman to the inspirational Freedom Song - Keep Your Eyes on the Prize, enlivened by YOUR participation!
We thank you for your continuing support of Eastside College Preparatory
School through these concerts. This year we all celebrate the twentieth
anniversary of the school's founding and invite you to view this video chronicling their inspirational story.
We are very excited to announce the release of our first CD,
a milestone in the fulfillment of our goal of bringing to light the
music of outstanding African American composers. This collection
of piano music was written by Zenobia Powell Perry, performed by
Josephine Gandolfi, LaDoris Cordell, and Deanne Tucker and recorded at
Stanford University by Mark Dalrymple. Produced by Jeannie Pool, it can
be ordered from Amazon here.
Included
on the CD are pieces for solo piano and a suite of four-hand works
arranged from orchestral movements in her opera Tawawa House, an opera
of epic proportions, musical beauty, and great historical
significance. To learn more about this gifted, accomplished composer,
go to http://zenobiapowellperry.org/ Pianists
of all levels and teachers take note: sheet music for the piano pieces
heard on the recording is available through this website.
We hope that many of you will soon be listening to and playing this music yourselves
