Executive and Artistic Director John Orlando of Distinguished Artists Concert & Lecture Series certainly has the knack. Consistently during the past 25 years he has managed to discover interesting young performing artists and bring them to Cabrillo College for its Concert Series.
So it was last night in Cabrillo College’s new Music Recital Hall, a lovely new 375 seat state-of-the-art facility. We were hearing the debut of the brand new recital and music hall plus the local debut of the interesting young Lithuanian pianist, Andrius Zlabys. Originally we had been scheduled to hear the exciting young Russian pianist Alexander Romanovsky, but at the last moment he wasn’t able to obtain a visitor’s visa. This misfortune turned into a blessing, for it gave us the opportunity to hear the equally exciting Mr. Zlabys.
