October 2023 Spotlight: Cedille Celebrates Halloween!
For the month of Halloween, a playlist of over 50 tracks from the Cedille catalog that are spooky, scary, eerie, demonic, sardonic, grotesque, and/or just plain weird — plus one piece that actually is Halloween-themed: Chicago composer Leo Sowerby’s “Theme in Yellow” (yellow = pumpkins).

Songs in Flight features world premiere recordings of Shawn E. Okpebholo’s complete song cycle for which the album is named, along with four additional art songs — one from each of his other song cycles — building upon the themes and messages of his work, performed by Grammy winning and-nominated artists known for their dedication to cultural and historical music projects.
Children’s Stories features world premieres of works based on beloved children’s literature by superstar classical composers Michael Abels (Frederick’s Fables for narrator and orchestra) and Augusta Read Thomas (Gwendolyn Brooks Settings for children’s choir and orchestra). Both pieces bring children’s literary narratives stunningly to life through music.
Newly updated for Black History Month 2025 and in honor of our February release, Chicago composer Shawn E. Okpbeholo’s Songs in Flight, our Black Composers on Cedille playlist now features albums from the past two years at the top.
