Join bassoonist Dr. Marissa Olegario and pianist Dr. Rie Tanaka for an inspiring recital celebrating the expressive range and colors of the bassoon and piano repertoire through works spanning more than a century of musical creativity. The program features Camille Saint-Saëns's elegant and lyrical Bassoon Sonata, Amanda Harberg's vibrant and emotionally rich Sonata for Bassoon and Piano, and Jessie Montgomery's reflective Peace, a powerful meditation on connection, resilience, and hope. Together, Olegario and Tanaka bring artistry, sensitivity, and virtuosity to a program that bridges tradition and innovation, showcasing the bassoon's unique voice in both beloved and contemporary repertoire.
