Youth Music Extravaganza!
Richard Lin, violin soloist
Our annual Youth Music Extravaganza is popping at the seams this year! Not only are we presenting the winner of this year’s Indianapolis Violin Competition (just announced: it’s 27-year-old Richard Lin!) playing the Khachaturian Concerto, but we are offering a rip-roaring program of Latin-inflected works guaranteed to get toes tapping.
On the program:
Khachaturian: Violin Concerto, Richard Lin, soloist
Gershwin, Cuban Overture
Ginastera: Dances from Estancia
Contreras: Mariachitlán
