The Elie Siegmeister Centennial Concerts & CD
The Elie Siegmeister Centennial CD is here! — “a timely album of varied and eminently worthy discoveries” - Robert Sherman. Come hear the music of Elie Siegmeister - and his students - in 16 concerts planned for 2009. The Prof. Edgar H. Lehrman Memorial Foundation and The Elie Siegmeister Society request contributions — letters, programs, recordings, anecdotes, and donations — toward the forthcoming bio-bibliography of Elie Siegmeister (1909-1991) by Leonard J. Lehrman & Kenneth A. Boulton, which Scarecrow Press will publish in honor of the Siegmeister Centennial, in 2009. Visit the Elie Siegmeister Society Website at http://ljlehrman.artists-in-residence.com/ElieSiegmeisterSociety.html and view photos of the French premiere of the opera The Mermaid in Lock No. 7, which Siegmeister called “the definitive version!” (The mermaid wore seashell earings. Period.)
