Here is my ninth album of piano solos. Celebrating a variety of genres, these fourteen compositions represent many different birds. The piano solo “Crows” is dark and daunting, which contrast to “A Flock of Seagulls” that is uplifting and whimsical. “Dragonflies” is a jazz sensation somewhat magical and fun. More details are included in the album description on the link.
Enjoy!
150 Year Celebration of P.E.O.
What an amazing experience it was to play the piano for the P.E.O. International Convention in Des Moines, Iowa this past September.
The rehearsal with the choir of 275
It was just wonderful having my Chapter BL sisters, Gretchen Jolly and Carolyn Chapman to share this grand occasion. And a very special Thank you to my daughter and P.E.O. sister, Kelsi Kremer, who helped me sell Cds and sheet music and was just over all fantastic!
P.E.O. Founders Piano Solos at Illinois Convention
Past State President Karen Steward was kind enough to give me a quote, “When I was looking for music for the Convention of Illinois State Chapter in 2012, I ordered the CD “The Piano Solos: A Tribute to P.E.O. Founders” from Jill. She had composed and performed the CD and it was beyond my expectations! I had a hard time deciding which beautiful melody I loved best! I chose to use “Ella Stewart” as a processional and “Suela Pearson Penfield” as a recessional. I still listen to my CD today and it still brings me peace and. Thank you, Jill, for sharing your talents! “
Descendant of Hattie Briggs Bousquet
It has been my great pleasure to be in contact with Tammy Laird,
who is the Great Great Granddaughter of Hattie. She received the
Founder’s Sheet Music a number of years ago. Here is what she said,
” I was the pianist for the Kansas State Convention this past June. I shared all seven of the Founders pieces that you had composed. They were very well received…our Sisters loved them!! “
Thank you for the support Tammy!
