Double bassist Paul Erhard and pianist Alejandro Cremaschi are presenting a unique recital of tango-inspired music in northern Michigan this week.
All of the music on their recital was composed by Luis Jorge González (1936-2016), an Argentine-born American composer who was a friend and colleague of Erhard's and Cremaschi's for many years.
All three served on the music faculty of the University of Colorado, Boulder.
Erhard and Cremaschi visited IPR's Studio A to give a preview of some of the music they'll be presenting on this week's recitals and to discuss González's musical and personal legacy.
