Work introduction
A contemporary showpiece for piano and orchestra, lighting up the audience in both of its performances to date: the 2011 premiere with the Professional Orchestra of the Universidade do Minho in Portugal, conducted by the composer, and the 2013 US premiere with the Holy Names University Orchestra, conducted by Steven F. Hofer.
For the adventurous pianist, the piece includes several optional "windows" for improvisation.
