For more information, please visit our dedicated page for this event and check out our interview below! Coming soon, I will be premiering my concerto PLAY! with Third Coast Percussion in Santa Rosa, CA! A few years in the works, this piece includes narration, technology and a whole lot more. We are so excited to see it come to life. Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being here! Lots of love, Clarice
