Upon request from the organizers, this recital with commentary will consist entirely of selections from the 24 Valsas Brasileiras of Francisco Mignone. In an intimate setting, Alexandra will once again bring these Brazilian musical gems to the public. Her performances of these works have been widely praised. Her compact disc recording of Volume One of the Valsas brasileiras was praised by The Atlanta Journal-Constitution: “Young Portuguese pianist Alexandra Mascolo-David’s debut disc is a treasure . . . she plays them [the waltzes] with a poetic, almost improvisatory spirit, in full command of the composer’s urbane voice . . . a notable disc . . . .”
