Concert Details

In homage to Beethoven on his 250th birthday, mother/son team Alena and Martin play music imbued with conceptual modes of expression, radiating clarity and transcendence. Each of these B’s were bursting with brilliant ideas; these noetic energies, distilled and embodied, become a tour de force of musical exuberance.
