The
Lompoc Concert Association will present Steinway Concert Artist Lara
Downes at 7:30 p.m. today at the First United Methodist Church, 925
North F St. in Lompoc.
Downes will perform
her critically acclaimed concert program “The Americans,” a
fascinating recital that highlights distinctly American voices of the
20th century. The vibrant program will feature perennial favorites
such as Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue” as well as lesser known
works including Florence Price’s virtuoso solo piano masterpiece
“Fantasie Negre.”
Downes redefines the
solo recital format with visionary, cutting-edge performances at
prestigious concert venues worldwide. She presents the piano
repertoire — from traditional favorites to newly commissioned works
— in creative ways that bridge musical tastes, genres and
audiences.
