Dr. James Lee III
Dr. Eric Conway writes:
Last
year, the National Symphony Orchestra at the John F. Kennedy Center for
the Performing Arts commissioned Morgan Faculty member Dr. James Lee to
compose a new work that would commemorate the 20th anniversary of 9/11.
This work was entitled An Engraved American Mourning was
supposed to be a part of a European tour for the NSO that would have
been performed in Paris, Dresden, Prague, and two other cities. The
Pandemic crisis postponed those plans and instead of a world premiere in
the U.S. and Europe, this year the piece was performed in Washington,
D.C. at Kennedy Center on last Friday, September 10, 2021 at 7:30
p.m. See link below to the posting of the concert.
Again, Dr. James Lee represents Morgan well on a national stage! Congratulations, Dr. Lee!
