Composer Lucius Craig Cervantes is working with painter Melanie Anne Sanderson, an English artist who has created 101 Diana Portraits. The paintings are to be integrated with video used behind an orchestra performing Queen Of Hearts.
Kevin Hilley & The Wave Wake Up morning show interviews Craig about his upcoming performance.
An unusual catalyst motivated composer, musician, recording producer, artist and real estate executive Craig Cervantes to create a musical tribute to the late Princess Diana that will be featured during Saturday night’s Missouri Symphony Orchestra performance.
“Queen of Hearts” will be performed as part of the orchestra’s production at 7 p.m. at School of the Osage.
June 24th, 2016
A special feature in Saturday’s concert, the orchestra will perform a selection composed by local resident Craig Cervantes with guest pianist and friend of Cervantes, Carol Schmidt, at the piano. The musical score, a tribute to the memory of Princess Diana of Wales, is titled “Queen of Hearts.” This music was recorded by the London Symphony in 2015.
