Pamela Decker is a friend and colleague of mine here in Tucson, where
she has premiered several of my compositions this year. She can play
whatever is put in front of her, no exceptions! I get to hear her
play several times a week at Grace St. Paul's Episcopal Church, where
she is our organist. (Hi, David W. ;-) )

Best,
Richard White
