Rachmaninov Celebration
Saturday, October 28, 2023, 7:30 PM

A supreme virtuoso pianist and composer, Sergei Rachmaninov stole the hearts of listeners worldwide with achingly beautiful melodies and alluring harmonies.
Rachmaninov emerged as one of the last great Romantic composers, and this first of two concerts pairs his singular voice with those of his mentors and contemporaries.
