Pianists Carlo Grante and Rebekah Dickinson speak with Evening Concert host Craig DeSilva about their concert recitals celebrating the 100th anniversary of Church of the Crossroads. The all-Rachmaninov program coincides with the Russian composer's 150th anniversary of his birth in April. The concerts are Saturday, Jan. 7, at 4 p.m. at Kawaiahaʻo Church and Sunday, Jan. 8, at Church of the Crossroads. The concerts are free and open to the public. Learn more.

This classical music conversation aired on January 4, 2023 on Evening Concert.

Craig DeSilva is glad to be playing recorded music on the air instead of playing for a live audience on stage as did when he studied piano. He began piano lessons when he was a child and continued piano studies at the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (where he majored in broadcast journalism and minored in music) under the late Peter Coraggio.
