Composer and musicologist Luciano Chessa showcases his past, recent, and premiere works through 64 hand-picked artists encompassing gospel, orchestra, symphony, and opera. The internationally renowned Bay Area-based artist shapes A Retrospective as a self-portrait marking the culmination of 30 years of his artistry. The premiere, A Blind Date, draws inspiration from his personal life and experiences as an openly gay Italian man. This is a composer known for challenging traditionalism and exploring instruments beyond their inherent use, so prepare to expect the unexpected. For more information, please visit this page.
