"Morgan Freeman, with his weathered and resonant voice, is nearly as famous as a narrator as he is an actor. But according to the Oscar winner, there's no special trick to it. I just talk, he said in a recent phone interview from Gulf Shores, Alabama, where he owns a home. Freeman's recorded narration is the centerpiece of Morgan Freeman's Symphonic Blues Experience, a two-hour multimedia concert coming to the Green Music Center in Rohnert Park on Nov. 22."
"He does a beautiful job on the narration of this 100-year arc of musical history from the Mississippi Delta, said Eric Meier, executive producer of the project, from Portland, Oregon, during a conference call that included Freeman. When his schedule allows, Freeman also appears in person to deliver opening remarks, as he did last month when the program was presented at Davies Symphony Hall in San Francisco."
Morgan Freeman provides the recorded narration for Morgan Freeman's Symphonic Blues Experience, a two-hour multimedia concert tracing 100 years of musical history from the Mississippi Delta. The program is scheduled for Nov. 22 at the Green Music Center in Rohnert Park. Executive producer Eric Meier praised Freeman's narration, and Freeman recalled an enthusiastic reception at Davies Symphony Hall. Freeman described his narration approach simply: "I just talk." Freeman identified musical preferences for blues, country and jazz, expressed limited affinity for opera, and said he struggles to understand some hip-hop lyrics.
