Music Illuminated: An Evening of Music, Film and Comedy with the Canellakis-Brown Duo
A familiar duo to MITV audiences, Michael and Nick collaborate once again in this Music Illuminated presentation, featuring two new works by Michael, two short films by Nick, and the cello sonata of Rachmaninoff, a deeply expressive work that explores the depths of the cello’s range.
