Northern Michigan audiences have the chance to experience a recital of tango-inspired classical music this week.
Double bassist Paul Erhard and pianist Alejandro Cremaschi are presenting a recital entitled "Wanderer's Songs" twice this week: on Tuesday, Sept. 17 in Frankfort and Wednesday, Sept. 18 in Manistee.
All of the music on their recital was composed by Luis Jorge González (1936-2016), an Argentine-born composer who was a friend and colleague of Erhard's and Cremaschi's for many years.
All three served on the music faculty of the University of Colorado, Boulder.
Erhard and Cremaschi visited IPR's Studio A to give a preview of some of the music they'll be presenting on this week's recitals and to discuss González's musical and personal legacy.
