SHEONA WHITE
SOLOIST & EDUCATOR
New CD Release
I am thrilled to announce the release of the first of two new Solo CD’s this year!
This recording project was born from a visit to America in February 2023. The wonderful Jeffrey Kaufman invited me back to New York having heard me play to record his music with String Orchestra, a definite first for the Tenor Horn! This album also features works by Joseph Turrin and Dorothy Gates and the incredible pianist Ron Levy. If you would like to order the CD, please click on Store.
