Happy Hour No. 131: Gloria Cheng

Pianist Gloria Cheng is a muse to composers from John Williams to Esa-Pekka Salonen. In this afternoon of music and conversation, Gloria shares stories, insights, and spellbinding performances in equal measure. With half the program devoted to dialogue and the other to a40-minute mini-recital, this is a rare chance to engage with a living legend — up close and unscripted. On the program: selections from Gloria's album Root Progressions, including works by Adelaide Pereira da Silva, Pierre Boulez, Tomàs Peire, Gernot Wolfgang, Anthony Davis, Erich Zeisl, and a movement from John Williams' Conversations. This Happy Hour is FREE to attend and seats are sure to sell out ahead of time, so secure your tickets early before they're gone.

In-person tickets to this concert are free; Livestream $10 (free for Salastina Members)
