Lydia Artymiw, piano & Cynthia Raim, piano

PCMS’s second event honoring Ravel’s 150th birthday features pianists Lydia Artymiw and Cynthia Raim, both of whom have been Philadelphia favorites for decades, with more than 70 PCMS performances between them. For this special duo recital, Artymiw and Raim present solo and four-hands works by Ravel, whose revelatory style of French music draws from such diverse inspirations as Asian culture, French Symbolist poetry, Spanish folk music, and Impressionist painting.
