Yellowstone Park

I was invited to Los Angeles to sing “The Wedding” for the film, Henri 4, which has been released in both Germany and the UK.  I just learned that the soundtrack is now available, composed by Hans Zimmer and Henry Jackman and produced by Sony Classical – what a nice surprise!

Singing Johann Christoph Bach at the 4×4 Baroque Music Festival

September 19, 2010

My summer ended on a high note, under Avi Stein‘s direction at the 4×4 Baroque Music Festival in Manhattan, NY.  At the opening of the festival on August 27th, Avi directed “the music of German composers in the generation before Johann Sebastian Bach, including the work of an illustrious cousin, Johann Christoph Bach.”  I was fortunate enough to perform Johann Christoph Bach’s “Ach, dass is Wassers gnug hätte” (“Oh, That I Had Tears Enough in My Head”).  We got a great review in the New York Times!
