Full Moon Rise Concert: A Journey through Time & Sound

On Sunday, September 27, join us at Songbird Amphitheater for a very special Full Moon Rise evening with harpist Danielle Riegel, presenting a concert that takes us on a musical journey through centuries, styles and countries — from the Baroque to the music of today.

For a few selected pieces, Danielle will be joined by special guest artist Jan Pipal, violinist with Orquestra do Algarve, bringing the beautiful combination of harp and violin into the evening.

The journey begins with the timeless elegance of Johann Sebastian Bach, followed by Johann Pachelbel, where harp and violin meet for the first time.

From there, Danielle travels into the dreamy, impressionistic worlds of Claude Debussy, including his beloved Clair de Lune, and Erik Satie, before moving into the evocative music of Ludovico Einaudi, one of the world’s most celebrated contemporary composers.

Jan returns to join her for Einaudi’s popular piece Experience.

The journey then moves beyond the classical repertoire, with Danielle bringing her own harp interpretations to familiar music — including Frank Sinatra’s iconic Fly Me to the Moon — with a few musical surprises along the way.

With the delicate voice of the harp, the expressive sound of the violin and the Algarve landscape slowly turning from daylight into night, this promises to be an intimate and unforgettable evening.
