Jamaica’s “Young Gifted & Black” Classical Musicians-Repeat

Last week our featured guest Ms. Janice Palmer, Interior Designer extraordinaire, shared  with us, her inspiring journey to being recognized for her talent. This week we revisit an earlier show celebrating Jamaica’s young gifted and black classical musicians.

 

Don Walbridge Shirley – born 1927, described as an: 

outstanding Piano Virtuoso, began playing at 2 ½. First 

taught by his Mother, he gave his first public performance 

at the tender age of 3 years. Orrett Rhoden fell in love 

with the piano while listening to his mother’s enchanting 

playing of the piano when he was only four. Paul Shaw’s interest in music began with the purchase of a toy Piano at Woolworth, by his mother. Do join us in the backyard as we Labrish with delight and pride in celebration of three Jamaican Mothers who inspired and groomed these internationally acclaimed Classical Masters and native sons. 

 

Invite your friends to pull up their chairs and join you this week as we continue to Celebrate, Enlighten & Preserve the rich diverse culture of Jamaica: “Land We Love”.
