Massimo La Rosa, principal trombonist of The Cleveland Orchestra, and Elizabeth DeMio, pianist will perform a recital to benefit the Dystonia Medical Research Foundation at 6:00pm on April 6, 2014 at the First Unitarian Church in Shaker Heights, Ohio.
The recital also celebrates the October release of La Rosa's new recording, Sempre Espressivo, which features standard works from the trombone repertoire, J.S. Bach's Suite no. 1 in G major for Solo Cello (performed on trombone) and a new arrangement of the famous Intermezzo from Puccini's Manon Lescaut. Sempre Espressivo follows La Rosa's debut solo recording, Cantando, which American Record Guide called "the best available". Sempre Espressivo was produced and engineered by the multiple GRAMMY award winning team of Elaine Martone, Thomas C. Moore and Michael Bishop from Sonarc Music and Five/Four Productions.
This performance is sponsored by Royalton Music Center, Ohio's only NAMM Top 100 Music Store. Learn More at: www.royaltonmusic.com.
