November 14, 2010Sierra sang at the James Fradrich Memorial Concert DVD Party at the Metropolitan Room. The evening was a benefit for the James Fradrich Memorial Scholarship for Classical Pianists and Composers. In addition to performing solos and a duet, she sang a new arrangement of one of Fradrich’s song with Marquee Five.
I decided to take a cue (okay, blatantly steal) an idea from the blog of actress-singer-coach Erin Cronican, and filled out my own responses to the Playbill.com series of interviews in wich they ask well known theater performers about themselves. Consider this a draft for the actual Playbill.com interview… Oh, and it’s Erin’s Birthday today – Happy Birthday Erin! I’m […]
