Westport Native Brings Festival Edelio 2019 to Wilton

Festival Edelio opens its 3rd annual summer season with a grandiose program, entitled “Transfigured Night”, featuring an all-star international cast of six brilliant musicians on Saturday, August 10.

Held for the first time in Wilton’s First Presbyterian Church, the program will consist of two romantic masterpieces - Arnold Schoenberg’s sublime “Verklärte Nacht” and Pyotr Tchaikovsky’s captivating “Souvenir de Florence”. Come and escape the heat with two of the greatest sextets ever written and enjoy a complimentary glass of wine with musicians post-concert! 

Igor Pikayzen, a renowned concert violinist that grew up in Westport, CT, started Festival Edelio in 2017 and envisioned it as a venture that would bring the best of classical music to new audiences in Fairfield County during the summer. Continually pushing the listeners and performers with challenging and bold programming, Edelio prides itself on both the incredible caliber of artists and the dedicated, engaging audience that attends our concerts. Join us for a night of divine music and you won't imagine a summer in our area without Edelio ever again!
