Proud that our very own @eoutwater returns for the 3rd year in a row, as well as a world premiere commission for @simoncarlos1 as part of Last Night of the Proms!
I’m delighted to announce my new position as the Composer Chair for the @BostonSymphony !
They have a long history of music-making & It’s an honor that I don’t take lightly, & will use this opportunity to build on that history through my music as well as mentorship & education.
This project with @simoncarlos1 & @NosedaG will also include digital releases of The Block; Songs of Separation; Wake Up! Concerto for Orchestra and will culminate with the release of a complete album in September 2024.
We are excited to announce a new recording series "Four Symphonic Works" by @kencen Composer-in-Residence Carlos Simon (@simoncarlos1) and conducted by Gianandrea Noseda (@NosedaG) on our media label.
My next single “Love Is Stronger Than Pride” from my upcoming “TOGETHER” album is OUT TODAY!
A remake of one of my favorite pop songs, it reminds us with its simple yet powerful music/lyrics that love is indeed stronger than pride!
LISTEN & DOWNLOAD NOW!
So grateful to be joining the DECCA family and to be finally releasing this project. It is my hope that I not only honor the men, women and children sold into slavery, but to recognize that systemic racism still ever present in our society. @deccaclassics#requiemfortheenslaved
