Pianist Daniel Glover celebrates the 100th Birthday of Samuel Barber and 200th Birthday of Frederic Chopin with an innovative program that alternates works in similar genres by the two great composers. These include Nocturnes, Ballades, as well as works inspired by nationalism, such as Barber's Excursions and Chopin's Andante Spianato and Grande Polonaise. Rounding out the program will be one of the highlights of 20th Century American piano music, Barber's Sonata in E-flat minor, Opus 26. http://www.danielgloverpianist.com/
