Three courses of musical dining pay tribute to a love forged over multiple decades and continents.
In 2018, Honora and Dahlan Robert Foah commissioned Lucas Richman to write a piece in honor of Mario and his late wife Luciana, Dahlan’s mother. Inspired by food as being at the heart of Italian culture, “Concerto for Violin and Cello: Un Pasto con Luciana e Mario” (“A Meal with Luciana and Mario”) follows the progression of a meal in three courses (Primo, Secondo e Dolce) with each movement revealing animated repartee and tender moments of sincere affection.
Comes with score, solo parts and orchestral parts (string count of 9-8-6-6-5, unless otherwise requested. No extra charge for larger string count.)
