About The Event
Celebrate music by women! Revelatory music by two well-known musicians of the Romantic era, Fanny Mendelssohn Hensel, Felix’s talented sister, and Clara Wieck Schumann, known as ‘Queen of the Piano.’ Lili Boulanger’s masterful tone poem has expressive depth. Contemporary California composer Gabriela Lena Frank’s lively and colorful Folk Songs draw inspiration from her mother’s homeland, Peru.
Praised for “spot-on ensemble playing and a beautifully-blended sound” (SF Classical Voice), the Delphi Trio of Bay Area stars has performed widely in Europe, Canada, and the U.S., and has become a powerfully eloquent voice. Their debut album, Triptych, won Gramophone’s praise, and their world premieres are acclaimed. “Rich committed string tone, dazzling pianism, rhythmic flexibility” (Sarasota Herald Tribune).
