"Like a painter paints his pictures on canvas
So will I paint my pictures on silence"
Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess(Mingo/Nelson)

Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess(Mingo/Nelson)

George Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess

I recently just ended a performance of Gershwin’s Porgy and Bess. It was highly acclaimed with an amazing cast. I was blessed to work with director Hope Clark, be working along side performers such as Larry Hylton, Kishna Davis, Lester Lynch, and Kevin Short. Plus my colleges Leah Hawkins, Dmri Alexis, and many more blessed musicians.

Great experience singing the roles of Mingo, Nelson, and Tenor solo for the prayer during the storm.
