Katherine Pracht (mezzo soprano) and Gordon Turk (organist) in the Great Auditorium on July 4, 2018

July 5, 2018 by Blogfinger

Introduction to Irving Berlin’s “God Bless America.”      Ms. Pracht’s beautiful voice blended with the Hope Jones organ. After this, the audience rose to join in singing Mr. Berlin’s loving tribute to America. Berlin was an immigrant who came here and magically understood the greatness of the USA such that he could write music like  this.

This performance was part of Mr. Turk’s organ concert, “Pipes and Stripes.”

    Katherine Pracht was outstanding. How fortunate we are to have such a talent
    in our community.

    And when it comes to Gordon Turk, he is the greatest asset
    CMA and we have..
