"If Not Now...?"
An Evening of Chamber Music
Saint Peter's Church (Citicorp Center)
619 Lexington Ave. at 54th Street
Tuesday, April 24th, 7:30pm

My concert event, "If Not Now...?" was a thrilling (for me!) evening, thanks to the wonderful musicality and dedication to excellence brought to the affair by the musicians I was lucky enough to work with.

Music Critic for TheatreScene, Jean Ballard Terepka wrote:

"Brown writes expressively, easily conjuring up pictures and tableaux vivants, stories and vignettes. His compositions are intelligent and urbane, confidant and conceptually rich; sad wisdom and ruefully observant wit both flourish in Brown’s music, equal partners in the composer’s analysis of the world whose vagaries inspire and intrigue him."
