On Father's day, Annie performed the 2nd (d minor) and 6th (D Major) Bach unaccompanied cello suites at Chaparral House, 1309 Allston Way, Berkeley, CA. Chaparral House is an independent, non-profit, skilled nursing eldercare community with a very life-affirming creative culture. Attendance was a full house; admission to the public was free, but attendees were invited to donate gifts to the residents. "Thanks for putting on such a great show! The Bach Cello Suites have to be some of the most gorgeous music ever written, and I'm thinking # 6 is my absolute favorite! You played beautifully and had the audience in the palm of your hand throughout." "Thank you for a wonderful performance. What you created was truly special. By bringing in folks from the outside, you effectively brought our elders into the larger community outide the nursing environment. What a wonderful gift and how truly creative. It has turned my thinking in a new direction. May you continue to flourish!" |
As part of the the Fresh Voices VI festival of new works by Bay Area composers and librettists, Annie joined, left to right - Keiske Nakagoshi (piano), Brian Holmes (composer, french horn), and Mark Alburger (music director) in 3 sold-out premier performances of The Fashion God (Music and words by Brian Holmes), a one-act opera about Michael D. Brown, who led FEMA while hurricane Katrina destroyed New Orleans. The libretto is based on email messages to and from Brown. He wrote: "When you look at my lovely FEMA attire, you'll simply vomit. I am a fashion god." Performances took place at Thick House, 1695 18th St., San Francisco. |

Annie joined the spoken word/jazz music band Copus in their set as they competed in the 2nd round of the Emergenza International Music Competition at the 12 Galaxies in the Mission, San Francisco. Copus was selected to go on to the semi-finals. |
