I will be singing a big solo this Saturday in a cantata by Aaron Copland
called "In the Beginning." It's all acappella, and quite challenging.
The concert is being presented by the Vocal Arts Ensemble at Temple Beth
Emeth/St. Clare's Episcopal Church, 2309 Packard Rd. in Ann Arbor.
Admission is $10, $5 for students and seniors, children free. The
concert begins at 8 PM and highlights the richness of ancient scripture.
Selections include a variety of psalm settings by Josquin and
Palestrina, as well as a renaissance setting in Hebrew, and a 3-psalm
piece by contemporary Israeli composer Tsvi Avni.

In case you want another chance to hear this wonderful cantata, it will
be repeated in a joint concert with the Zamir Chorale of Metropolitan
Detroit on Sunday, May 22, 7 PM, at the Jewish Community Center, 6600 W.
Maple Rd., West Bloomfield. Most of our May 14 repertoire will be
repeated, and there will be several selections by Zamir alone. Both
choirs will sing "In the Beginning." Admission prices are the same as
May 14.

I could do without the now-permanent association with "It's what's
for dinner," but Copland can hardly be held responsible for that..

I'm performing in the Kickoff Concert of the Scott Joplin Festival in
Sedalia, Missouri, on Thursday, June 2 at 11:00 a.m., at the Farewell
Brunch on Sunday, June 5, and at other miscellaneous venues during the
festival. Program details are at http://scottjoplin.org/festival.htm,
and my musical "bio" for the festival is posted at
http://scottjoplin.org/performers.htm . So if you're in vicinity of
central Missouri on those dates, drop in and have a listen. Lots of
events, many of them free, and many fine performers.

Hey I heard Katie, Deb, and Deb sing a number
of times and I've been missing them.
This is the first I've heard them called All About Eve.

Well, this is cool...I went to the Ark last night to hear Anne Hills
and Tom Paxton, and after Dave Siglin scolded me for paying for a
ticket, he asked me to be the opening act for one of the 40th Anniversary
Fling concerts this July. So I'll either open for Dar Williams and
Cheryl Wheeler, or Greg Brown, or John McCutcheon.

Dave went to the same high school as I.
But he graduated 11 years earlier.
He was classmates with Michael Moriarty and
slynne's dad.

oops. Mr. Siglin was released back into society
in 1960. So "classmates" was misleading.
Don't fret Lynnette

re resp:7: I am bummed about the timing of the Katie Geddes and the
Usual Suspects concert, as I haven't heard you for a couple of years
now. I will be attending my niece's graduation that evening, in
Tennessee.
Have you come out with any new albums, Katie? Your WWW page is 2 years
out of date.

"The Sapranos" is a Christian-themed show about Italians in New Jersey who
are not mobsters; they're sickly-sweet and maple flavored.
