About this event
The Cal Poly Symphony begins the season with two exciting collaborations. It will perform side-by-side with the San Luis Obispo Youth Symphony and welcome pianist Elizabeth Dorman as a soloist to perform Sergei Rachmaninoff’s Piano Concerto No. 2. The combined ensemble will perform Mikhail Glinka’s Overture to Ruslan and Lyudmila. Praised by Joshua Kosman of the San Francisco Chronicle for her “elegance and verve,” pianist Dorman enjoys performing music both new and old as a soloist and chamber musician. A finalist of the 2018 Leipzig International Bach Competition, Dorman has been widely recognized as a leading performer for her inquisitive interpretations of Bach’s music on the modern piano. She has appeared as soloist with orchestras including the Louisville Orchestra, the Leipzig Mendelssohn Chamber Orchestra, the Santa Rosa Symphony, the California Symphony, the Vallejo Symphony, the San Francisco Symphony Youth Orchestra, the Folsom Lake Symphony, the Stanford Summer Symphony, Symphony Parnassus, as a soloist for interdisciplinary projects at New World Symphony, and as a keyboardist at the San Francisco Symphony. She can be heard on Delos records as a concerto soloist with Santa Rosa Symphony’s new album celebrating the music of Ellen Taaffe Zwilich, and has also recorded for Navona.
