About   (request update)
Kenneth D. Alston, Jr., a native of Bronx, N.Y., sings with a voice hailed by The Baltimore Sun as “Heart-piercingly beautiful.” His vocal range spans five octaves and is leading him to pioneer opportunities not only for himself but for performers across the globe.
In June 2007, Alston broke ground in Beijing, China, as he arranged and directed the music for the international premiere of the play Passages of Martin Luther King. He and four other singers became the first African-Americans to perform on a stage in China with Chinese actors. The performance included China’s most elite actors of stage, film and television.
That performance followed Alston’s accompaniment of the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra in summer 2006, as soloist for Porgy and Bess during the International Prague Proms Series in Prague, Czech Republic. Later in 2006, he debuted with the Charleston Symphony Orchestra and its Gospel Christmas performance.
A graduate of Morgan State University in the studio of Mrs. Betty M. Ridgeway and the famed Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music and Art & Performing Arts, Alston has emerged as a national and international virtuoso, tackling music, theater and television.

Kenneth is currently cast in the Lyric Opera of Chicago "Porgy & Bess" Fall 2008. He will be singing the role of Crabman.
