Internationally renowned master of the bandoneon, Daniel Binelli, joins the Spokane Symphony Orchestra under the direction of conductor Morihiko Nakahara for its "Latin Fiesta" This Wednesday, May 25th, at 7:30pm at the beautiful Spokane Opera House in downtown Spokane. A seasoned composer in his own right, Binelli is also widely acclaimed as the foremost exponent and torchbearer of the music of Astor Piazzolla.
"Binelli's ability to wring melancholic sobbing and sighing out of this reedy instrument, combined with an exceptional sensitivity towards Piazzolla's melodic inspirations, is both remarkable and evocate." Sydney Opera House, Sept.2003 THE AUSTRALIAN Sharing the stage with Sr. Binelli and the Spokane Symphony Orchestra are tango dancers Deborah Sclar and Brian Dunn of Boulder, Colorado. They will dance four tangos, one with solo accompaniment by Sr. Binelli, and three more including the full orchestra. This marks the second time Brian and Deborah have joined Daniel onstage, reprising their first meeting last summer as guest artists and tango workshop teachers for the Colorado Music Festival's "Evening of Tango." Ticket prices range from $30 to $15, with a $10 discount for full-time students. For further details, see the Spokane Symphony's website at http://spokanesymphony.org/ind.php
