SVC MTM Alzheimers Stories Part 1

The Susquehanna Valley Chorale commissioned composers Robert Cohen and librettist Herschel Garfein to write "Alzheimer Stories," which sets to music the personal stories of Central Pennsylvania families impacted by Alzheimer's. The piece features mezzo soloist Bonnie Cutsforth-Huber, baritone soloist (Ted Keegan, Broadway's "Phantom of the Opera"), Susquehanna Valley Chorale and Orchestra, William Payn conductor. Dr. Payn 'parented' the composition through selection of the composer and by guiding the project from concept through to performance. A copy of the libretto and other information and interviews about the recording may be found here: http://cameronia.com/svc/
