Also on the program are Paganini’s Grand Sonata for violin and guitar, Piazzola’s History of the Tango, Riley’s Cantos Desiertos, and Manuel DeFalla's Spanish Dance from La Vida Breve.
Moalem and Yee will also perform Mozart’s duo for Violin and Viola in G Major and all three musicians will improvise together in the rarely heard ensemble of violin, viola, and guitar.
