A Fantastic Evening
On October 4, our very lucky in-person audience got to enjoy a stellar evening of solo piano as Jackie graced us at our “Jon Kimura Parker Fantasies and Beyond” concert.
A last minute venue change from Rosario Resort to the main stage at Orcas Center meant Jackie could perform on the Festival’s lovely 1904 Steinway, Valerie, and he made her sing! We were transported through a wide variety of works by Mozart, Ravel, Schubert, and John Adams, and finished our tour of fantasies in the most fantastical land of Oz, as arranged by William Hirtz.
We thank concert sponsor Helen Bee, Orcas Center and lighting wizard Jake Perrine, Anita Holladay, who created the glorious flower arrangements you see in these pictures, and of course Jackie for the amazing music and always informative and entertaining commentary (and fabulous socks).
