About this Event

The piano is certainly one of the most versatile musical instruments, yet it still often fails to get credit for its role outside the concerto, the solo recital and chamber music. All four compositions on this program feature the piano, but each in a different role.

Members of the Grand Rapids Symphony, David Lockington, conductor, and the Kalamazoo Symphony Orchestra, Raymond Harvey, conductor, unite to form this fantastic chamber orchestra.

Pianists performing are Lori Sims, Gilbert Kalish and Jeremy Denk.
