My husband used to work in that building on the 34th floor in it’s previous incarnation pre-9/11, so it will be fascinating to see what the new version looks like.  I’m also looking forward to playing with legendary pianist Blair McMillen again – especially that we are playing John Adams’ Road Movies, which is a piece that particularly suits to Blair’s and my styles I think.  There aren’t too many classical musicians out there with rhythm as rock solid as his.  I will also play Bach’s Chaccone (using a Baroque bow), Blair will play works by Karen Tanaka and Chopin, then Jasna and Dina will play a Schubert piano work for four hands.  I believe drinks and snacks will be on offer afterwards.

Here is some more info:
