R. Nathaniel Dett (1882-1943)
Clipper Erickson writes:
The world needs music now more than ever. A musician’s purpose is to
provide it in whatever way they can. This Sunday, April 5, at 4:00 I
offer great music that has comforted me and given me strength over the
last few weeks on a program given online. Cunningham Piano has
graciously allowed me to use their space. I will share with you the
soulful melodies of Chopin, the color and imagination of Nathaniel Dett
and the Waldstein Sonata of Beethoven. I know of no other pieces that
express life giving power more.
Join me on Sunday or stream afterwards:

Donations are appreciated to help keep online performances going but
don't let that be a reason to not watch - in these uniquely challenging
times everyone is welcome!
In the meantime may two of Chopin’s Nocturnes take you on a journey of sorrow, darkness and passion followed by transcendent bliss that redeems the spirit.
