    Amy Catron, principal cellist for the Millikin-Decatur Symphony Orchestra (MDSO) and adjunct faculty member for the School of Music at Millikin University, has released a compilation of work produced by First Step Records, a Millikin student-run record label, titled "Particles and Prayer."

    Catron describes the cello as one of the most versatile instruments, and she has established herself as one of the leading performers of her generation.

    Catron received a Global Music Award Silver Medal in March 2019 under the category of "Original Works for Cello."

Past winners include jazz bassist Esperanza Spalding, blues rock band Alabama Shakes and singer Sara Bareilles.

    For the Global Music Awards, Catron submitted a compilation of projects she did over the past three to four years. Among those projects was a world premiere of "Particle I" written by Robert Chumbley. "Particle I," "Particle II" and "Prayer" are all featured on the new album.
