A Piano Performance: Sonata in Memoriam Lloyd Arriola
“A Piano Performance: Sonata in Memoriam Lloyd Arriola” with Hermitage Fellow Robert Pound, Friday, May 24, 5:30pm: A chance encounter at the Metropolitan Opera in 2015 with Lloyd Arriola, a Juilliard-trained pianist, sparked a conversation for a commission to be composed by Hermitage Fellow Robert Pound. Something ambitious, evocative, and undeniably powerful was needed to satisfy Arriola’s thirst to extend the canon and Arriola couldn’t wait to perform it. When Arriola suddenly passed away in 2016 at the age of 43, this solo piano composition took on an entirely new dimension, which Pound used his residency at the Hermitage to create. Hear insights from the composer and the sweeping, complex result performed by a close friend and fellow Julliard-trained pianist, Charles Hulin IV, interpreted as only someone with such insight into the source material can. Presented in partnership with Oak Street Stage. Registration is required at HermitageArtistRetreat.org ($5/person registration fee). Oak Street Stage, 2050 Oak Street, Sarasota, FL 34237
