Gospel singer Lindsay Slaton is known for her beautiful voice and her love for the Lord. Now, she has recorded a new single, “I Still Believe”, which truly expresses her trust in God. The Virginia native performs with a praise and worship team at her church in Waldorf, MD as well as with the gospel group “Anthony Slaton and the Voices of Inspiration”. Her previous single, “Call on Jesus” was her personal testimony. “I Still Believe” is an affirmation, and one that Slaton’s fans will be able to understand.

Saturday April 18th, 8:00p.m. – The Moguchaya Kuchka, the “Mighty Clutch” or the more widely known “The Mighty Fistful,” are five of Russia’s most influential composers. They include Mily Balakirev, César Cui, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Alexander Borodin, and Modest Mussorgsky. They took a nationalistic approach modernizing the sound of Russia during a time music from Italy, France and Germany were the current manner. A talented group of amateur composers eager to incorporate Russia’s strong tradition of folk music into orchestra suites and operas. Tonight with The Music Center at Strathmore as their canvas the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra crafted Mussorgsky’s most famous composition, Pictures at an Exhibition.

Saturday March 28th, 8p.m. – Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 3 is one of the most technically demanding piano concerts ever written. The finger work involved is amazing! Tonight at the Music Center at Strathmore the National Philharmonic Orchestra along with guest pianist Haochen Zhang are poised to perform what is often considered the Mount Everest of piano concertos. This program also included Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet Overture-Fantasy and Capriccio Espangnol, Op.34 by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov.

Many artists have said that their work was inspired by personal experiences. Christian rap artist Anthony “TK” Kellems’ new album “Mixmaster” was inspired by his recovery from a shoulder surgery. Each track is thought provoking and will have the audience screaming for an encore.

ShamrockFest 2015 Highlights

March 24, 2015 Alan Duckworth Music Reviews

gaelic storm

Saturday March 21st – 3p.m. – In Southeast DC lies a patch of land, the old RFK Stadium parking lot. It has always been one of my favorite DC concert venues. Whether it was HFStival, the Vans Warped Tour or ShamrockFest, something about that crumbling patch of warped asphalt and highway overpasses is magical. Enjoy it while it lasts. With DC United getting a new stadium at Buzzard Point in 2017, RFK Stadium will likely be demolished. I’d give it a few years at best before Shamrockfest has to pick up and move elsewhere. DC is pretty limited when it comes to large outdoor concert space but hopefully it stays in DC.
