Prelude Press
. . . is celebrating a full year
since the release of PRELUDE TO GLORY and its World
Premiere in Washington DC with the National Philharmonic
and choirs from across America. Since then, there have
been numerous performances Connecticut, Arizona,
Louisianna, Florida, Utah, California and
elsewhere. The most recent presentation of PTG was
by the Sonoran Desert Chorale. Read what the
audience and members of the choir had to say: "The
music breathed life into a dusty history that I rarely
consider and made it poignantly relevant. I saw the
fields; felt the sweat, the cold, the
fear, the pain. In that two hours my heart knew
hope, joy, excitement,
terror, pride, sadness, tenderness, and love. Warm
tears trickling down my face during the Memoriam were
testament that my soul embraced and whispered
"thank you" to the souls who gave their all
for our freedom. My spirit soared to the stars, filled
with hope and the promise of peace and freedom so that
all might pursue and realize their dreams."
"I love choral music, but
"Prelude to Glory" is exceptional in its
ability to
move the listener. I hope that it will be
performed widely throughout the
United States." --- Maripat M.
