The Spring Concert continues ALIAS’ innovative programming with a series of very unusual vocal works followed by pieces by two composers from the Prokofiev family. ALIAS will present two works by venerated composer Sergei Prokofiev, followed by a string quartet by his up-and-coming grandson, Gabriel Prokofiev.
Also on the program are rarely heard works for soprano, harp and horn; and soprano, lute and cello.
- Andre Caplet: Doux fut le trait for soprano and harp (1924)
- Louis Spohr: Aria for soprano, harp and horn
- Diego Ortiz: Recercadas for cello and lute (1553)
- Virgilio Mazzocchi: Sdegno for soprano, cello and lute

Proceeds from this concert will benefit Charles Davis Foundation, which provides inner city youth positive role models,
programs, activities, resources and opportunities that build character and self esteem.
