This concert is a collaborative endeavor between pianist Cacie Miller [https://caciemiller.com/]and string duo Missing Piece [https://www.missingpiecemusic.com/] (Dan Galat, violin and Kelly Quesada, cello). We come together to share the piano trio works alongside piano solo and string duo music in honor of Lera Auerbach's fiftieth birthday and her creative spirit.

"A renaissance artist for modern times, Lera Auerbach is a widely recognized conductor, pianist, and composer. She is also an award-winning poet and an exhibited visual artist. All of her work is interconnected as part of a cohesive and comprehensive artistic worldview." (taken from https://leraauerbach.com/biography/)

The works on this program explore themes of identity, nostalgia, dreams and night terrors through music that is in turns atmospheric, sarcastic, frenetic and whimsical.
