Miguel Roig-Francoli World Premiere, Apr 12

Spanish composer Miguel Roig-Francoli has an upcoming world premiere in NYC! Roig-Francoli was the recipient of the Foundation for Iberian Music’s Composer’s Commission in 2010, for which he wrote Songs of the Infinite (premiered by Adam Kent and Jennifer Roig-Francoli at Carnegie Hall). Roig-Francoli has received many awards both for his composition and his teaching, and he has been described as a pioneer of postmodernism in Spanish music.

His new work, Six Preludes after Chopin, will premiere at The Green Space on April 12, 2016, as a part of a solo recital by pianist Soyeon Kate Lee. Lee is a critically lauded pianist who has placed in several international piano competitions, including 1st place at the Juilliard Gina Bachauer International Piano Competition in 2001. Lee is also a student at our very own Graduate Center, pursuing a DMA in piano performance with Richard Goode and Ursula Oppens.

Tickets are only $20 and available through the Concert Artist’s Guild.
