With Scenes from Childhood, pianist / composer Cyrus von Hochstetter presents a varied program of music that is succinct yet wildly evocative. Schumann's well-known Kinderszenen is here contrasted with the more obscure Music for Children by Aram Khachaturian, and complemented by a set of Cyrus von Hochstetter's own Piano Miniatures. With Louis Arques joining on clarinet, the program expands to music for clarinet and piano duo in the same spirit.
