Two jazz-inspired works by Peruvian-American composer and pianist Emmanuel Sikora will be premiered on the program, with the composer performing as a vocalist and violist. The Washington Post describes Sikora's music as “an appealing melding of the romantic and the contemporary, unselfconscious and unpretentious.”
