Derrick Hamley: The Unveiling
| 26. 1998 | Derrick Hamley:
The Unveiling (arr. Kenneth Cooper, 1999). Gena Raps, piano; Kenneth Cooper, harpsichord. Kerrytown Concert Hall, Ann Arbor, MI (1/23/2000). Harpsichord unidentified. Derrick Hamley's friend Nina Hogue wrote to
me (11/20/1999): "I did relay your question: The unveiling
of what? Derrick laughed and said, 'it was up to the listener.'
My own opinion (knowing the perils of his childhood) is his perspective
on life - how it looks good on the outside, only to be "masked"
by an evil reality - thus life being a blend of contradictions." |
