Central Park at Dusk and April Elegy, sung by Deborah Pinnock

During her Junior Recital at the University of Miami, Deborah performed a set of American Art Songs by John Duke. Both songs were based on the poetry of American poets (Sara Teasdale, Alfred Young Fisher and E. E. Cummings).

Thanks so much. Much prayer and passion went into this performance.

Nice work, Deborah. I think you "get" Duke's songs.

Point of order: it's polite to give your pianist a credit. She's a fine pianist-musician, and she did a great job supporting you, even managing to turn her own pages without distracting from the performance.

And yes, in the spirit of full disclosure, I collaborate with a lot of singers. I love doing art song and lied with them, because we are true collaborators, as you were with your pianist in this video.

the Poem April Elegy was actually written by Alfred Young Fisher
