Composers-In-Residence

World-Premiere Artists

A recital staged to present the Negro spiritual as arranged for solo voice and piano is one of the most enduring and beloved listening experiences in the world of classical music. So, during our annual World-Premiere gala event, the foundation joins forces with makers of the famed Steinway piano to prepare a magical setting for just such an event. Our agency is committed to diverse interests when contracting with high-caliber vocal artists to headline these performances. We strive to present a wide range of tone qualities and performance styles to our audiences over a period of time. We seek to recognize some well-established professionals, and to introduce younger or newer artists as well. We relish singers who show great strength in their dramatic presence, or unusually fine interpretive skills. And we want our audiences to hear some hard-to-find voices of rare tonal quality: a truly sweet “Mozart” tenor, an authentic contralto, the elusive coloratura soprano or countertenor. Matched to a worthy accompanist and high-performance instrument, our world-premiere artists enchant selected audiences year after year. Their virtuosity only adds to our luster! Anyone with an interest in making a world-premiere appearance on our behalf should contact us via e-mail to nbernard@negrospiritual.org.
