For ages 55+ -- Classics Around the World: The American Vernacular -- Presented by Pianist Sivan Etedgee -- Learn about the origins of American Classical music. We’ll begin with the idea of American music, which actually came from European composers including Dvorak and Busoni. Other composers will include Joplin, Gershwin, Gottschalk, and Florence Price. Presenter Sivan Etedgee appears frequently as a recitalist, chamber musician, and lecturer. Committed to making classical music enjoyable for everyone, he establishes an easy rapport with his audiences, giving commentary on the music throughout his concerts.
