Tonight’s Performance Is Made Possible By The Generosity Of Kris And Tim Barry.
At First, You Think You’re In For A Wonderful Recital By An Extremely Talented Violinist. (Don’t Worry. You Are!) Then The Question Is Posed To Said Violinist, In This Case Minghuan Xu, "Have You Ever Been Part Of A Sting Operation?" And Things Shift A Bit. What Lurks Beneath Minghuan’s Polished Exterior? Pure Intrigue. She’s Tough On Crime By Night, A Virtuoso Violinist By Day.
Sounds More Like A Movie Than A Portrait Recital, Right? And That’s Fitting. Joined By Pianist Winston Choi, Minghuan Has A Program Of Music Featured On The Big Screen By Composers John Corigliano, Dmitri Shostakovich, Carlos Gardel And More.
