His recital program titled “From Then and Now” features Maurice Ravel’s elegant “Sonatine,” Catherine Likhuta’s contemporary “Rondo for Piano” and Claude Debussy’s evocative “Images, Book 2.” The afternoon continues with Wanghua Chu’s “Jasmine Flower Fantasia,” Frederic Chopin’s dramatic “Ballade No. 4,” Philip Glass’s “Etude No. 6” and Franz Liszt’s virtuosic “Hungarian Rhapsody No. 12.”

"Life is a carnival! It's much more beautiful to live it singing." If you're unfamiliar with my life's mantra, perhaps you’d recognize it if I were instead to say "la vida es un carnaval, es más bello vivir cantando." Now put a salsa beat under it and add the iconic voice of the Queen herself, Celia Cruz. Sound familiar? One would hope.
