Earle preparing for return to Carnegie Hall

In a few weeks, professional pianist Diane Earle will be heading back to the Big Apple for another performance engagement.

The musician, Owensboro Symphony pianist and professor emeritus of music at 呦呦视频, will be in the New York City spotlight as part of the world premiere performance of Lloyd Larson鈥檚 new choral cantata 鈥淎mazing Grace: From Blind to Free鈥� at 7 p.m. July 12 on the Perelman Stage, inside the Stern Auditorium, at Carnegie Hall.

For Earle, who estimates playing the venue around 鈥渁 dozen鈥� times, 2025 marks her 20-year anniversary since making her debut at the concert hall back in 2005.

鈥�(It鈥檚) amazing 鈥�,鈥� she said. 鈥淚t has gone by very quickly. I鈥檝e had major life events in the 20 years 鈥� I鈥檝e lost both parents and retired from my 呦呦视频 Wesleyan job, but I feel like the same person.

鈥�(I feel) very blessed to still be playing the piano,鈥� Earle said.

According to a joint press release from True North Presents and Jubilate Music Group, the presenting entities of the premiere, 鈥淎mazing Grace: From Blind to Free鈥� will detail the 鈥渃ompelling and extraordinary story鈥� of English evangelical Anglican cleric and slavery abolitionist John Newton, who previously served as the captain of slave ships and an investor in the slave trade.

Surviving a life-threatening storm at sea eventually led Newton to write the popular Christian hymn 鈥淎mazing Grace鈥� in 1772, which went on to be published seven years later. From then on, Newton crusaded for the abolishment of slavery, according to the release.
