Adriana Zabala named DISTINGUISHED VOCAL ARTIST 2021
by the American Prize

This award is given to honor "sustained artistic excellence over an extended period of time," but I would like to acknowlege the role of the premiere of The Trial of Susan B. Anthony, but Steven Mark Kohn (and for which he was also awarded an American Prize!) in the conferrring of this honor. 

Steven Mark Kohn has written a moving, incisive, wistful, witty, and timely dramatic account of the trial of one the great champions and key figures in the Women's Suffrage movement in the U.S, Susan B. Anthony. E. Schirmer published the score in May of 2020, and I am privileged that Steve has made me the dedicatee.
