After a 20-month pandemic hiatus, the Nashville Philharmonic Orchestra (NPO) is returning to in-person performances. The theme of their opening concerts is “Festive Return”. This is a celebration of both the music and musicians who are finally playing together again after nearly two years of solitary practice and rehearsals on Zoom.
One of those musicians is harpist Liana Alpino – and her celebration includes playing “Baroque Flamenco”, the 3rd, fiery movement my “Soñando en Español” concerto, “Baroque Flamenco” with the NPO.
In January, Liana won the Grand Prize in the Nashville Philharmonic Orchestra’s 2021 Concerto Competition in the Adult Category.
