Before and after the concert we host a cocktail reception and benefit dinner at the Penn Club. Both events are optional. Our season launches with the Orchestra of St. Lukes under the baton of Maestro Riccardo Frizza appearing courtesy of the Metropolitan Opera with soloists Kathryn Henry Matthew Graybil Anthony Ratinov and Derek Wieland. The program features Mozarts Concerto for Two Pianos K. 365 a private film of Elgar set to Mina a lush tribute to his eponymous terrier songs of Clara Schumann Nahre Sols virtuoso variations on Happy Birthday and a world premiere by Derek Wieland of Trans Siberian Orchestra fame which sets Emily Dickinsons poem I Started Early Took by Dog to motifs from the rest of the program.
