Love’em and Liebermann
Sunday, May 22, 2011 at 3:00 pm
Horace Greeley High School Auditorium
70 Roaring Brook Road, Chappaqua, NY

Horace Greeley High School graduate Lowell Liebermann is one of America’s most recorded and performed living composers. His work is known for its audience appeal. Enjoy Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet ballet music and Tchaikovsky’s Romeo and Juliet Overture-Fantasy, then feast your ears on the New York Premiere of Lowell Liebermann’s Clarinet Concerto performed by world-renowned clarinetist Jon Manasse,

“The Virginia premiere of Lowell Liebermann’s magnificent new clarinet concerto outshone everything else. When the concerto cruised to a breathless finish...it seemed clear that we had heard a piece that will remain in the repertoire for decades to come. But it will take a player of Manasse’s caliber to do justice to Liebermann’s work. This bravura work requires not merely a professional player, but a virtuoso."
