  • 020422 Jim Brickman Press Release
    SINGER, SONGWRITER AND FAMED PIANIST JIM BRICKMAN PERFORMS AT THE WJCT SOUNDSTAGE ON FEBRUARY 4, 2022 Tickets Are On Sale Now Jacksonville, Fla. (May 28, 2021) –The Florida Theatre, in partnership with WJCT, is pleased to announce singer, songwriter and famed pianist Jim Brickman live at the WJCT Soundstage on Friday, February 4, 2022 at 8:00 p.m. Jim Brickman’s distinctive piano style and captivating live performances have revolutionized the popularity of instrumental music, making him a driving force behind modern American music. The hit-making songwriter is the best-selling solo pianist of our time, earning 21 Number One albums and 32 Top 20 Radio Singles in the industry bible, Billboard Magazine. He’s garnered two Grammy nominations, gospel music’s Dove Award, two SESAC Songwriter of the Year Awards and the Canadian Country Music Award. He also has a music scholarship named for him by his alma mater, the prestigious Cleveland Institute of Music. Born and raised in Shaker Heights, Ohio, Brickman began his music training at the age of five. But young James wouldn’t conform to the rudimentary regulations of piano lessons. “He didn’t have the knack for it,’ his first teacher would say. That didn’t discourage the tenacious pianist from creating his own unique brand of musical storytelling. Brickman is one of pop-music’s most fascinating success stories. He jumped from a career as a jingle writer of famous tunes for advertising, to reviving the romantic standard of the popular song. His first album release was 1995’s No Words, and he’s gone on to sell eight million albums worldwide.

  • Alumni News Fall 2019
    ALUMNI UPDATE St. Dominic School Fall, 2019 Anne Spoeneman Cochran Class of 1973 Singer-Songwriter According to singer Anne Cochran, she began to sing as soon as she began to talk. That gift for music stayed with her throughout her childhood and led her to a career in music that has spanned over three decades. Known for her smooth voice and gentle style, her music, both solo and with longtime collaborator Jim Brickman, has been on the U.S. Adult Contemporary Charts many times. She has performed duets with a multitude of performers, including Michael Bolton, and has been the vocalist for many well known orchestras. And to think she got started at St. Dominic School! Anne says that from first grade on, she would raise her hand in music teacher Cal Stepan's class, to volunteer for any solo parts. Mr. Stepan, who was also the music director for the church, told one of the nuns that Anne had perfect pitch. The nun shared that with Anne's mother, and the rest is history. It's no surprise that the highlight of her time at St. Dominic School was the St. Patrick's Day Show, now known as the St. Dominic Show. Anne Cochran in 6th Grade She couldn't wait to practice for it. Much like today's show, each class would perform a song and dance routine. Besides the show, Calling all SDS Alumni!
