Jenny Lu
It is my great pleasure to invite you to my next chamber recital, 'In Stillness, We Dance', on Thursday 2 October, 8 pm this coming school holiday. I will be performing alongside the marvelous bass trombonist James Littlewood at Tempo Rubato, Brunswick. You can read more about James and I via About Jenny Lu and James Littlewood — Tempo Rubato.
'Be moved by dances of devotion in this concert from Jenny Lu (piano) and James Littlewood (bass trombone). Featuring works by Korngold, Kreisler and Joe Twist, this program is teeming with passion and yearning, and explores the sweet sorrow of star-crossed lovers in two musical interpretations of Romeo and Juliet. Selections from Prokofiev’s much-loved ballet score are paired with the performers’ own arrangement of an orchestral interlude from Delius’ opera A Village Romeo and Juliet. Join us for an intimate program of timeless tales.'
