Impressive Prodigy Kemp In Town
By Raoul Abdul
The fascinating musical personality Emme Kemp will be celebrating the release of her latest CD, "Try a Little Tenderness," with signed copies available for purchase at her performances.
Kemp''s credentials are impressive. Many will remember her from the Broadway musical "Bubbling Brown Sugar" in which she not only performed but was represented as composer of several of the songs. She has been sought out as both a concert and cabaret artist. She has also been featured
on numerous television shows.
Born in Chicago, Kemp began her career as a child prodigy who grew up listening to the blues and gospel music. She studied at Northwestern University and the Berklee School of Music. Before coming to New York, she spent time in California where she coached with the legendary pianist Egon Petri. Her repertoire covers a wide range of musical styles.
Besides performing and composing, Kemp has been an active member of the David I. Martin Music Guild of the National Association of Negro Musicians, Inc. She has received awards from the National Endowment for the Arts, ASCAP, NANBP and IWJ. The New York Times has commended her for having "an unusually sensitive understanding" of her art!
