John Riesen and Richie English | Entering Music

Lifelong pianist, composer, co-host of WNED Classical’s Entering Music and Western New York’s own Richie English is joined by award-winning, operatically trained tenor (and finalist on NBC’s America’s Got Talent) John Riesen as they debut an original song written and composed by Richie English specifically for John Riesen's voice.
Listen as John and Richie discuss what sparked the composition of this piece, some of Richie's creative processes while writing, and the challenges and joys of performing the song together.
Then, watch John and Richie perform the fabulous debut of their virtuosic “American Aria” Singularity.
