Performance Opportunities:

The Hampsong Foundation welcomes proposals from performers for dedicated American song research projects culminating in live performance.

“Hampson made the assertion that narrative is a common thread through American song. …Mr. Hampson conveys the idea of an oral tradition that it is his mission to pass on, with the closed-eyed intensity of a blind poet when he is singing and the zeal of an evangelist when he is addressing the audience about its cultural heritage.”
-- The New York Times (review of “Song of America” recital at Carnegie Hall, January 2006)
