<p class="ydpc586eea9MsoNormal"><b> </b>There will be a joyful noise on Sunday, March 13 at 3:00 pm as Solon’s Our Redeemer Lutheran
Church officially dedicates the new Steinway Grand Piano in the Sanctuary to
the Glory of God and in loving memory of Michaele Repak. This generous gift was
given by Michaele’s husband, Terry Repak. The Dedication and Concert is free
and open to the public. The audience is also invited to a ‘Meet the Artist’
reception immediately following the concert hosted by Lutheran Women’s
Missionary League (LWML).</p>
<p class="ydpc586eea9MsoNormal" align="left" style="text-align:left"><span> </span>“I’m beyond thrilled and blessed to have this
incredible instrument to play each and every Sunday and throughout the week,”
said Karen Prasser, Music Director of over 12 years. “Michaele Repak was very
active in the church and played in the bell choir. Terry surprised me with the
grand piano (and I mean that in every sense of the word). The piano was there
in the Sanctuary when I arrived for a rehearsal a couple of weeks ago. I
couldn’t believe my eyes! And he was there in a Steinway T-Shirt to take
pictures of my reaction!” </p>
<p class="ydpc586eea9MsoNormal" align="left" style="text-align:left"><span> </span>To celebrate the occasion, Pastor Jonathan Torreson
will do the official dedication followed by a concert that will include some of
Northeast Ohio’s best performers. To show the amazing versatility of the
instrument, Karen has invited her colleagues from Kent State University’s Hugh
A. Glauser School of Music to be a part. </p>
<p class="ydpc586eea9MsoNormal" align="left" style="text-align:left"><span> </span>Included in the concert is Timothy Culver, tenor.
Timothy was a student of Michaele’s in the second through sixth grades. Tim is
very well known as a performer throughout the country, and he is honored to be
a part of this celebration. Another incredible vocalist is Kishna Davis Fowler,
soprano. Kishna made her professional debut in the role of Bess in “Porgy and
Bess” with New York City Opera – a role she has repeated many times over her
illustrious career. Also performing is Ethan Miller, saxophone. He is a
recording and performance artist and was one of 25 saxophone artists chosen
internationally to compete in the Adolphe Sax Competition in Brussels. All
three performers will be accompanied by Karen Prasser, Director of Music at Our
Redeemer.</p>
<p class="ydpc586eea9MsoNormal" align="left" style="text-align:left;text-indent:.5in">The
Steinway will be in its full glory as Andrew Le, Steinway Artist, christens the
instrument with solo piano repertoire. Dr. Le is a recording artist and a
brilliant solo artist who will bring the incredible quality of this instrument
to its fullest potential.</p>
<p class="ydpc586eea9MsoNormal" align="left" style="text-align:left"><span> </span>Should you plan to attend, a call to the office is
requested but not required. Our Redeemer Lutheran Church is located at 7196 SOM
Center Road in Solon, OH. Please call 440.248.4066 for more information.</p>
