Georgia Johnson: From Latin America to Appalachia - A Viola Recital

This recital traces a dance-filled path across the Americas, from the smoky streets of Buenos Aires to the rolling hills of Appalachia. Piazzolla’s Libertango burns with passion and defiance, José Elizondo’s Danzas Latinoamericanas sings with color and warmth, and Mark O’Connor’s Appalachia Waltz offers a moment of reflection rooted in folk simplicity. Together, they remind us how rhythm and melody can travel freely across borders, speaking a language we all share.

With Dr. Mario Alejandro Torres, viola, and Vicki Collinsworth, piano.
