Cape Town native, Whitney April, is already making a name for herself in the TikTok metaverse where she’s garnered a million likes for her renditions of songs such as “Part of Your World” from the Disney animated film “The Little Mermaid,” Hillsong Worship’s “Here I Am to Worship,” and Adele’s “Easy on Me.”
Now, Whitney April is poised to expand her reach beyond the world of TikTokers as she prepares to release an awe-inspiring update of “The Prayer” with Rodrick Dixon of the Three Mo’ Tenors classical trio. She first heard the original 1998 David Foster-produced Celine Dion & Andrea Bocelli version when she was a child, but really fell in love with the 2003 remake by gospel legends Donnie McClurkin and Yolanda Adams. It’s fitting that Adams’ music director, Rodney East, was recruited to produce the charming new orchestration.
East, who has also collaborated with the likes of Jay-Z and Whitney Houston, creates a majestic musical backdrop that is as big and alluring as the original Quest for Camelot motion-picture soundtrack versions. The recording was an international event. East was at his Chicago, IL studio watching April sing her parts on Zoom from her brother’s recording studio in Cape Town. GRAMMY® Award winning engineer James Auwarter, who worked on both Kanye West’s breakthrough Late Registration project and Rihanna’s “A Girl Like Me,” mixed and mastered the track from his London, England studio. Sincerity is April’s approach to life and music.
