Overview
Small Wonders was a collaborative recital held at Mary Flagler Cary Hall at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music — a program built on the belief that every musician, at every stage of life, holds the power to touch hearts through honest and sincere expression.
Second-graders, adult beginners, career engineers returning to the piano, and seasoned vocalists shared one program. The stage was arranged so that no performance was a footnote to any other.
