| Lyric tenor Richard Heard, accompanied on piano by Pamela Howland, performs with a fresh, clear sound and an obvious enthusiasm for his repertoire, which features diverse composers including William Grant Still, John Work, Margaret Bonds, Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson, H.T. Burleigh and W.C. Handy. |

Wonderful Music

|
| Richard Heard has a rich tenor voice that makes you want to hear more. The only problem with the cd is that it ended. I can't wait for him to put out another. |

A work to be purchased and savored!
Submitted on: 2003-11-29 |
|
| What a tremendous talent! Richard Heard (accompanied on the piano by Pamela Howland) is certain to be one of the premier up-and-coming tenors of recent times. This album of African-American art songs and spirituals should be purchased for the quality of the music as well as its historic preservation value. Be sure to contact Richard Heard (Wake Forest University) and commend him on this album and give him the impetus to record another! |
