Internationally renowned baritone Elem Eley's fourth solo releaseForever Sing is deeply personal, rooted in his Southern upbringing and the heartfelt expression of singing from the Psalms. For the programme, Eley chose beloved songs evoking memories of his youth, some that he has since called on in decades of concerts around the world and as Professor of Voice at Westminster Choir College of Rider University in Princeton, New Jersey. Meeting this challenge demands collaborators of diverse skills: his partner for his first three albums, pianist J.J. Penna, plays the settings of Dvořák, Rubbra, Honegger and Altman. Concert organist Noel Werner accompanies Eley on the Isadore Freed and Leo Sowerby pieces, recorded in the historic 1836 sanctuary of the Nassau Presbyterian Church in Princeton. The final set of three gospel songs is arranged and accompanied on piano by the nationally renowned Dr. J. Donald Dumpson of Philadelphia; a session that was emotional and exciting to witness as the two personal friends and outstanding artists created a unique sense and sound of the gospel musical genre, unique to their partnership, performed with depth and personal resonance and captured here for the ages.
