Patrick O'Malley's Obliviana sets the stage with its modern allure, seamlessly merging innovative sounds with a timeless orchestral backdrop. Renowned pianist Lucille Chung takes center stage for Clara Schumann's evocative Piano Concerto in A minor, Op. 7, a work of compelling expression and virtuosic brilliance. The evening continues to unfold with Ottorino Respighi's Fontane di Roma (Fountains of Rome), a sonic journey that vividly captures the splendor of the Eternal City. Concluding the performance is Rimsky-Korsakov's Capriccio Espagnol, Op. 34, a charming showcase of Spanish-inspired motifs, transporting the audience with its vibrant rhythms and orchestral brilliance.
