In this program brimming with rhythmic excitement, dances of distinctive character by Stravinsky and Piazzolla bookend an enigmatic new work by the Guggenheim Fellowship-winning composer Randall Woolf. Appearing as a soloist with major international orchestras such as the Chicago Symphony, National Symphony, Houston Symphony, and Staatskapelle Berlin, Rachel Lee Priday is a violinist with "irresistible panache" (Chicago Tribune).
