“I would like to invite you to a special concert at John’s in the Village as part of the annual Village Trip Festival. My dear friend and piano champion Marc Peloquin will be performing my solo piano suite Mandango.”
– David Del Tredici

This program celebrates David’s brilliant artistry as an an openly and uninhibited gay composer and performer who has opened the door to future generations of LGBTQ+ classical musicians. The major work will be his piano suite, Mandango, consisting of five movements dedicated to gay couples who are friends of his as well as an homage to his mentor Aaron Copland.

Also included on the program will be Recollections, a post-impressionistic and deeply poetic work by composer and pianist Robert Helps, one of the most significant influences in David’s life. Dennis Tobenski was a student of David and composed Growl for Marc Peloquin, a six-minute tour-de-force replete with scintillating rhythms and triumphal chords.
