50th Anniversary of the Landing on the Moon Celebrated During Vesper Concert, Kristi Treu Explains

Vesper Concerts is bringing together percussion wizards Arx Duo with acclaimed pianists Qing Jiang and Sean Chen for a Midwest premiere of composer Nick DiBerardino’s Atlas, a work in honor of the 50-year anniversary of the landing on the moon (1969).  Atlas will celebrate the art of creation, exploring sonic spaces with a sense of wonder about the universe, the spaces we inhabit within it, and the spaces we might someday traverse.  Composer Nick DeBerardino will be a special guest. Do not pass up the chance to see this one-of-a-kind Omaha performance.

Kristi Treu, Executive Director Vesper Concerts, made her way to the studios at 33rd and Burt to sit down with Mike Hogan and discuss this extraordinary musical event, which is free to the public.  More information about this Monday, November 18th show is available at the website: http://vesperconcerts.org/event/arx-duo-atlas-with-qing-jiang-and-amy-yang-piano-nick-diberardino-composer/
