About The Event

The Resonance Project presents a Candlelit Piano Recital of Lenten Reflections: Rachmaninov and Franck.

Join Ying’s partner, Irwin Shung, as he guides listeners through a colorful Lenten recital accompanied by compelling narration and arresting visuals.

Franck’s “Prelude, Chorale, and Fugue” is the very stuff of revelation. Overtly religious, it opens with visions of brooding despair but ultimately transcends to the heights of ecstasy in its final moments.

By contrast, Rachmaninov’s virtuosic “Ten Preludes, Opus 23” are steeped in lush, romantic worldliness; yet even within this opulent landscape, fantastical apparitions emerge at unexpected moments. The climax of the “First Prelude in F-sharp Minor” culminates in a cataclysmic and profound loss of faith, while the final movement, in enharmonic G-flat major, lifts us to the stars.

Info and tickets are available at RMSeries.com. The Resonance Project is devoted to accessibility, and Pay-What-You-Can tickets are always available.
