The Desert Scene | Guest: Joe Giarrusso | Topic: Christopher Richardson and Palm Springs International Piano Competition
About this episode
Retried composer Joe Giarrusso visits with Bonnie about an upcoming concert from the Palm Springs International Piano Competition featuring Christopher Richardson. Playing a variety of musical classics to popular hits the program will include crossover / popular fare such as William Hirtz' Fantasy on Harold Arlen's Wizard of Oz, and Presley/Schmidt's Can't Help Falling In Love, and the jazzy Tom and Jerry Show by Uehara. The branching out from a strict classical concert is part of PS IPC's strategy for reaching more diverse audiences.
