This is a master class with Jason Robert Brown in which I was fortunate enough to take part on Nov. 4, 2006 at Summerfest in Birmingham, AL. A bonus is that, because of my performance, the Artistic Director and the Summerfest organizer both approached me about coming back to work with them at a later date...perhaps to do Jason's SONGS FOR A NEW WORLD!
If I were doing this, I think I would've peed my pants. If Jason Robert Brown sitting in front of me telling me stuff, and helping me...... Yeah. Definitely peeing my pants.

Oh wow. I'm so jealous of your experience! Of course if I had to sing for JRB I'm pretty sure that I'd basically die on stage of horror. Your voice is BEAUTIFUL. Thanks so much for posting!
