In The Key of Love --- a Valentine's celebration of music heralding the passion, drama, and tenderness of great love stories, in the intimate backdrop of The Sunset Lounge. This captivating concert features Susan Paik, violinist of the Colorado Symphony Orchestra, and Teddy Niedermaier, acclaimed pianist and composer.

Together, they bring to life a program inspired by opera’s most romantic tales, arranged for violin and piano to capture every heartbeat and high note of these timeless stories. At the center of the concert are three newly composed Concert Fantasies by Teddy Niedermaier — each weaving beloved melodies, vivid characters, and dramatic moments into a single captivating movement.

Let the music sweep you away in an afternoon truly in the spirit of Valentine’s Day.
