Yang

New Muse Concerts continues its fourth season on March 14th and 15th with Carnival of the Animals, a program of music for four hands on one piano in connection with Un/Natural Selections: Wildlife in Contemporary Art, an exhibition organized by the National Museum of Wildlife Art and on view at the Gibbes Museum through April 16th, 2023.

“We’re thrilled to present this charming and whimsical program,” said New Muse Concerts’ Artistic Director Lydia Chernicoff. “Pianists Ronaldo Rolim and Xiaohui Yang will bring the tales of Sleeping Beauty, Tom Thumb, and a parade of fantastical animals to life. They’ll play a free preview concert at MUSC on Tuesday, March 14th, and the full program at the Gibbes Museum the next day. Tickets to Wednesday’s performance at the Gibbes include admission to the galleries, so the audience is encouraged to arrive early to see the exhibition for themselves.”
