To arrange an interview with Maureen McGovern, please call publicist Lawrence Helman at 415/ 661-1260. Maureen McGovern burst on the recording scene some 30 years ago with her version of the Academy Award winning, #1 chart-topping, international gold record, "The Morning After," from The Poseidon Adventure, followed by another Oscar-winning gold record “We May Never Love Like This Again”. She has since earned a reputation for being one of America's most popular artists with a voice that defies categorization. Possessing a jazzy, warm register, Maureen glides easily into a crystalline coloratura. It is no wonder she has been called "The Stradivarius Voice." To quote Mel Tormé, “Maureen McGovern is, quite simply, the most glorious singer to come down the pike… one of the finest vocal instruments in the world, a range that hasn't been matched since Yma Sumac stunned us decades ago… a world-class performer." Maureen recently appeared at The Hollywood Bowl and Chicago's Ravinia Festival in a Tribute to Miss Peggy Lee. Maureen guest starred with Mel Tormé and Buddy Rich (in his last public performance) on Sentimental Swing: A Tribute to the Music of Tommy Dorsey. She has performed in extensive cross-country tours with Tormé, Mercer Ellington and the Duke Ellington Orchestra and, a 36 city tour with John Pizzarelli. She has performed rare Gershwin with Dick Hyman and the Jazz in July series in NY and Sondheim & Jazz with Eddie Daniels. McGovern was featured on Disney's Pulse, the IAJE live jazz concert recording, where she stopped the show with her stratospheric, pyro-technical version of "I'm Late!" Maureen appeared with Dame Cleo Laine, John Dankworth for the Mel Tormé Tribute at The Hollywood Bowl. Highlights from her recent CD’s include, Out Of This World: McGovern Sings Arlen, Maureen's tribute to the music of the great Harold Arlen in a Centennial celebration and The Music Never Ends: The Lyrics of Alan & Marilyn Bergman (both CDs feature new bonus cuts produced & recorded by Maureen). Also, Naughty Baby: McGovern Sings Gershwin and her Grammy nominated: The Pleasure Of His Company, with jazz pianist, Mike Renzi. Maureen is featured singing a Brazilian version "This Is Just The Day" on the Grammy- winning, "Best Musical Recording for Children" CD/DVD, Songs from the Neighborhood: The Music of Mister Rogers. Maureen's current CD's, Help Is On the Way (in partnership with Broadway Cares/Equity Fights Aids) and Works of Heart, songs of hope featuring a newly arranged symphonic version of "The Morning After," launched the Maureen McGovern "Works of Heart" Foundation for Music and Healing to address emotional and inspirational needs of patients and caregivers.

    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: SELECTED WORKS OF COMPOSERS ASSOCIATED WITH HOWARD UNIVERSITY Guericke Christopher Royal, Doctor of Musical Arts, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Chris Gekker School of Music Throughout its over 100 year history, Howard University has produced and attracted many talented composers of many musical genres. Limiting this project to any one genre or focus would have lessened the overall impact of the music they created and the inspiration that has been a lauded part of the institution. The project will demonstrate the various harmonic, melodic, rhythmic and emotional contributions of the selected composers through interpretation of their music on the trumpet. Composers have been connected to the university in three general ways: as students, alumni and faculty; as commissioned artists; and through the performance of their works by notable performers associated with Howard. The pieces selected for this project exemplify a wide range of musical expressions and compositional techniques, and hopefully have been presented in a way that allows the emotional impact of each piece to resonate in a unique fashion. The selected works tended to fall into the categories of A. Trumpet and Brass Works B. Spirituals/ Meditational/ Religious Works C. Popular and Jazz Pieces D. Organ or other Instrumental Works E. Works of Historical Reference or Significance In some cases, certain pieces may be categorized across multiple categories (e.g. an organ piece based on religious material). As this was also a recording project, great care was taken during the recording process to capture as much emotional content as possible through stereo microphone techniques and the use of high quality equipment.
