SUMMARY:Moonlight and Mirrors: Pianist Gwendolyn Mok
DESCRIPTION:French composers Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel\, both creating in the Impressionist style\, were often viewed as competitors. Critics regarded Ravel as a lesser imitator of the older Debussy. But is that true?\nOn Sunday\, March 15\, piano virtuoso Dr. Gwendolyn Mok will perform selected compositions side-by-side\, each on a similar topic. This will allow you to make your own judgments. How are the composers similar? How are they different? Does Ravel really try to imitate Debussy\, or does he have his own distinct style?\nThe Moonlight and Mirrors recital will feature Debussy’s Moonlight Sonata and Ravel’s Miroirs\, among other pieces. Dr. Mok will use the piano and visual aids to help you understand and appreciate how the two composers differed and how they were similar even while composing in the same Impressionist style.\nOur Musician Series performances are held in a smaller\, more intimate venue\, bringing the musicians up close with the audience. Tickets for this season’s recitals have sold out quickly\, leaving some people disappointed. An early purchase is encouraged!\nCall Cabrillo Box Office at 831-479-6154 or visit https://tinyurl.com/moonlightandmirrors.
