About the event
Seating: 5:00 PM
Concert Begins: 7:00 PM
Dinner service ends at 7:00 PM. Please arrive early if you plan to enjoy dinner before the performance. No food or beverage service will be available during the concert. Programming is one of the most personal parts of being a musician. For Miriam K. Smith, it begins with choosing music she truly loves—pieces that each reveal a little of her own personality and musical identity.
“My hope is that the audience will feel as if they know me at least a little bit by the end of the concert, even though we may have never spoken a word to each other.”
For this Classical Sunday, Miriam joins Ming-Li Liu in a program that travels across cultures and musical traditions, from works inspired by traditional Russian folk songs to music shaped by the sounds and spirit of American jazz.
