For this special Chopin for All program we will have a chance to chat with Avery live, and to listen to her wonderful performance of Chopin’s Concerto in E minor, Op. 11. Avery was joined by the University of Miami’s Frost Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Maestra Marzena Diakun. The program was livestreamed and recorded on Sunday, March 1, 2020.
