“I just want to see the classical music world embracing all music because that is a responsibility of our country.  I do it because everyone deserves a voice and because it’s good music.” – Michelle Cann

 

This week, a world of black and white – the joys and harmonies brought out through the keys of the piano, when played with mastery.
