Published 4 years, 2 months ago
Description
Retried composer Joe Giarrusso visits with Bonnie about an upcoming concert from the Palm Springs International Piano Competition featuring Christopher Richardson. Playing a variety of musical classics to popular hits the program will include crossover / popular fare such as William Hirtz' Fantasy on Harold Arlen's Wizard of Oz, and Presley/Schmidt's Can't Help Falling In Love, and the jazzy Tom and Jerry Show by Uehara. The branching out from a strict classical concert is part of PS IPC's strategy for reaching more diverse audiences.
