Pianist Claire Huangci casts a spell in the magical Grotto with her performances of Scarlatti Sonatas taken from her new CD. Chopin is a mainstay of Claire’s repertoire and she is much in demand as a first prize winner of the Chopin Competition. Chopin was still composing in Paris when the French composer Gabriel Fauré was born. Fauré’s Quartet for piano and strings reminds us of the extreme beauty of hearing French Romantic music in the Grotto.

The Festival’s Grotto Concerts celebrate music in concert with the landscapeTM by combining the beauty of music with the area’s scenic wonders. An exhilarating 45-minute jet boat ride down the Colorado River brings you to “nature’s concert hall” (New York Times), a pristine, acoustically perfect wilderness grotto carved from the surrounding red rock walls.
Light hors d’oeuvres and wine will be served after the concert.
