The Salon de Virtuosi is delighted to present a special New Year's celebration, recorded live at the elegant Kosciuszko Foundation, 15 East 65th Street, featuring performances by two exceptional young artists - Michael St. Peter, tenor, known for his "warm, beautiful and true" singing (Chicago Classical Review), and Andrew Li, piano a fast-rising star, who is currently enrolled in the Harvard University/New England Conservatory joint program.
As a special treat, the concert will feature a set of Art Songs by composer Seth Grosshandler, including the world premiere of Trois Mélodies (Poèmes de Clément Marot) and traditional repertoire, including works by Chopin, Schubert, and Brahms.
