NEW DATE: Sensory-Accessible Concerts: Guitarist Adam Cicchillitti
April 7 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
This enchanting concert (rescheduled from February) features the warm and intricate stylings of celebrated classical guitarist Adam Cicchillitti, alongside award-winning pianist and series host Jennifer King. Presented in partnership with the Halifax Public Libraries, this free afternoon event is designed to be sensory-friendly, inclusive, and welcoming for all community members. The program offers a rich mix of music, featuring Argentine composer Astor Piazzolla’s “Invierno Porteno,” a piece that mirrors the serene essence of winter in Buenos Aires, and Luigi Boccherini’s “Introduction and Fandango,” a vibrant and lively composition reflecting the festive spirit of 18th century Italy. A highlight is the second movement from Spanish composer JoaquĂn Rodrigo’s “Concierto de Aranjuez,” a piece that evokes emotional resonance and introspection. Complementing these works are MĂ©lanie Bonis’ expressively lyrical “Romance sans Paroles” and QuĂ©bĂ©cois composer Alain Payette’s dynamic “Duo pour guitare et piano.” This Sensory-Accessible Concerts performance, blending rare guitar and piano repertoire with exceptional artistry, promises an inspiring musical journey for all music lovers.
