Artist Spotlight: William Chapman Nyaho

William Chapman Nyaho is the first concert pianist I ever heard.  He came to DCCC as a visiting artist while my mother was a professor of math there.  I remember walking down the hall past the auditorium and hearing incredible music coming from the grand piano.

Chapman Nyaho's talents have taken him all over the world, where he has received many honors and high recognition.

Here are a few highlights:

Earthbeats, Op. 22:


Preludes in African Rhythm:


Scherzo:


Troubled Water:
