The performance will be under the direction of Dr. Linda Shea, Director of Instrumental Music of the Summit High School music department, and will feature keyboardist Leonard Rhodes on organ, piano and harpsichord.

There will be four three-hour rehearsals, leading to the November 13 performance.

Texan singer-songwriter, Robert Earl Keen is by far one the most successful artist that many Americans have never heard. He’s had his songs recorded by George Strait, Lyle Lovett, Shawn Colvin, the Dixie Chicks and the Highwaymen (Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash & Kris Kristofferson), had Garth Brooks mention his music in one of his own songs, and played concert venues steadily for more than 20 years for audiences that number sometimes as many as 25,000.

Keen’s albums continue to receive critical acclaim and success. Keen’s latest studio album, What I Really Mean, topped #1 on the AAA charts and charted as the number two American album for all of 2005. The Washington Post called it “another terrific disc…a fine choice for those searching for country music with character and authenticity.”
