Cuban-born brothers Orlando Alonso and Orlay Alonso will share the stage –and the keyboard- performing four hands in their New York concert on Thursday, May 5, 2016 at 7:30 PM at Cary Hall at The DiMenna Center for Classical Music. Tickets available at http://thealonsobrothers.bpt.me

Equally talented, these brothers dazzle with their artistic exuberance and passionate expression. In a nod to their Spanish heritage, this duo has planned a program to include works by Manuel de Falla, Cervantes, Lecuona and Piazzolla; in addition to Brahms, Dvorak, Debussy, Gottschalk and Stravinsky.

Having played the piano since they each were six years old, Orlando Alonso and Orlay Alonso both attended the National School of the Arts in Havana, earned degrees from Manhattan School of Music and Yale University (among several other presitigious institutions), and studied under the mastery of world-renowned Cuban-American pianist Horacio Gutierrez .

As a duo, each brother brings his own signature style to the stage. Inspired by their communicative gifts, elegance and polish, the Alonso brothers shine with a charismatic stage presence that is a pleasure to behold.

“For them, it is never about showing off what they can do technically, but rather about bringing the listener into the meaning of the music. They are real virtuosos of their instrument not only because of their rock solid performances, but because of their considerable intelligence, sensitivity, intense feeling and contagious joy.” – New York Concert Review
