3-1-19 Renowned, Versatile Violinist Lucia Micarelli Takes Talents To Media Contact: Barbara Hiller, Marketing Manager 301-600-2868 | [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Renowned Versatile Violinist Lucia Micarelli Comes to the Weinberg Center FREDERICK, MD, Monday, February 25, 2019— Violinist Lucia Micarelli will perform at the Weinberg Center for the Arts on Saturday March 30th at 8 PM. Micarelli’s repertoire ranges from classic and jazz to fiddle music and Americana—all bound together by her trademark emotional vulnerability and technical wizardry. Tickets begin at $25 and may be purchased online at WeinbergCenter.org, by calling the Box Office at 301-600-2828, or in person at 20 West Patrick Street. Discounts are available for students, children, military, and seniors. As a child, Micarelli was a prodigy, making her debut at the age of six as a soloist with the Honolulu Symphony Orchestra. After her early start, Micarelli never slowed down, studying with renowned violin pedagogue Dorothy DeLay. At the age of eleven, she was accepted into the prestigious Julliard School of Music’s Pre-College Division. She would remain at Julliard until the age of seventeen, leaving to attend the Manhattan School of Music, where she studied with celebrated international violinist Pinchas Zukerman. While attending the Manhattan School of Music, Lucia began to develop a growing interest in non- classical music, as she started moonlighting with local jazz and rock bands in New York Clubs. Within a year she had accepted an offer to tour with the Trans-Siberian Orchestra as a featured violinist and concertmaster. As a violinist, Micarelli has featured as a soloist in two of Josh Groban’s world tours, performed in Barbara Streisand’s 2013 international tour, and toured extensively with Chris Bottil. In 2009, Micarelli broadened her career, starring in HBO Emmy Award winning series “Treme” as “Annie.” Amid her busy career, Micarelli has released two solo albums, “Music From A Farther Room” and “Interlude”, and recently finished recording a third album.
