Adelphi Symphony Orchestra Concert on October 27 at 7:30 p.m.

The talented students and faculty of the Adelphi University Department of Music present a remarkable concert under the direction of multiple Grammy nominee Christopher Lyndon-Gee. The concert will take place on Friday, October 27 at 7:30 p.m. on the Westermann Stage, Concert Hall, Adelphi University Performing Arts Center (PAC), 1 South Ave, Garden City, New York.

The most important and fascinating post-modernist composer in the world today, Valentin Silvestrov (Ukraine, born 1937), is presented with one of his greatest works: Postludium, featuring as solo pianist our recently graduated student of composition, conducting and piano, Oswaldo Machado. Much-loved faculty member, the distinguished soprano, Kelley Nassief, sings Richard Strauss‘s matchless and unforgettable Four Last Songs; and Ms. Nassief joins the orchestra in the magical Finale, mixing the whimsical and mystical of Gustav Mahler’s profound Fifth Symphony.
