SPELLBINDING CONCERT AT DIMENNA CENTER OF SORREL HAYS' SYMPHONIC/CHORAL MUSIC; SEVERAL PREMIERS. A FITTING MEMORIAL TRIBUTE

Dear Friends,

Three years im the maling. Conductor Max Lifchitz donated his time to prepare the scores to performance ready and we made NO compromises in my close friend’s vision of what this event should be. The performers were spectacular in premiers of intricately difficult music.

Max Lifchitz with me before the concert.

Max Lifchitz and me with the virtuouso piano soloist Huizi Zhang, who plaued in CHARACTERS, a concerto for piano, strings and wind, and Juloe Cain, Sorrel’s lovely estate attorney from Georgia, who cmae up for the event.

Sorrel left her Georgia land, lake and 4 cottages to the Feminist Bookstor Charis Books to be an artists’ retreat for creative women. They too came up from Georgia.

Ah, dear friend and colleague, I wish you could have been there to hear your work and heardreactions from the blown-away listeners.
