As Rozlyn Sorrell hit her final note on Gershwin’s “I Loves You, Porgy” when appearing as special guest vocalist with the North Carolina Symphony in the Booth Amphitheatre last year, there was that glorious moment of silent “awe” en masse -- before more than 7,000 concertgoers rose to their feet in thunderous acclaim. It doesn’t really get any better than that... A New York native, Rozlyn spent a number of years performing in music and film in Los Angeles before relocating to North Carolina where she operates a private vocal studio while expanding her concert touring and work in film, TV and music. She has performed or recorded with artists including Barbra Streisand, Whitney Houston, Al Jarreau, Cece Winans and others. Film and television appearances include Diplomatic Immunity, Nightmare on Elm Street III, General Hospital and Matlock. Sorrell's remarkable dramatic abilities and six-octave vocal range have taken her into some of this nation’s largest cathedrals where she has appeared as guest soloist. Her integrity, passion and unique vocal talent ring with equal clarity, whether she’s performing classics from the American Popular Songbook or concentrating on traditional spiritual and contemporary gospel repertoire. Sorrell was a featured soloist on the “Hour of Power” and a principal cast member in both the “Glory of Christmas” and “Glory of Easter” at Robert Schuller's Crystal Cathedral, and is endorsed by Christian Music Presenters.
