In her final DMA recital, Fiona Digney is joined by friends and colleagues Steven Schick, Aleck Karis, Kyle Adam Blair, and Kyle Johnson for a concert exploring the macro and the micro. The program will begin with a new work by duo ...and then we run, followed by the rarely performed magical and wondrous 1974 work for two pianos and two percussion; Makrokosmos III: Music for a Summer Evening by George Crumb.
Please join us for this FREE event that will be sure to start the new decade off right with ancient mystical sounds and a new work for a new world.
