Portland Piano International: Daria Rabotkina

• Daria Rabotkina, piano

Charles Griffes — Roman Sketches, Op. 7 ("III. Fountains of Aqua Paola" & "IV. Clouds")

Pianist Daria Rabotkina brings her signature warmth and effortless artistry to the Portland stage in a picturesque program that spans centuries and continents.

Charles Griffes's vibrantly colored sketches of Rome and Manuel De Falla's dances from El sombrero de tres picos radiate with the heat of late summer afternoons in southern Europe. And in pairing Schumann's nostalgic Humoreske with Prokofiev's immortal Romeo and Juliet, Rabotkina examines the beauty and fragility of life and love in some of the piano repertoire's most poignant, heart-melting works.
