Musical Prodigy Rudolf Budginas debuted with the Lithuanian National Symphony at age nine, trained at Moscow Conservatory, and promptly rose to international fame performing solo concerts. After moving to the U.S. in 1994, he discovered his true passion: giving classical music a broader audience appeal.

In his ingenious show “You, Me & the Piano,” Budginas illustrates how classical music has influenced contemporary artists by actually breaking down how Billy Joel might have drawn on Liszt’s “Hungarian Rhapsody” to get “Piano Man.” Famous for audience and humorous asides, Rudolf Budginas takes the audience from “Claire de Lune” to “Rhapsody in Blue” with contagious energy and endless surprises!

The music of David Crosby, Stephen Stills and Graham Nash is a cornerstone of rock ‘n' roll.  This trio of legendary singer-songwriters has been actively collaborating since 1969, and the connection they forged from day one—as artists and as friends—was profound and unbreakable. Essential elements of our pop culture experience, their songs including "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes," "Marrakesh Express" and "Wooden Ships" are just as durable, conveying emotional truths and social consciousness in equal measure. Forty years into their creative partnership, CSN is expanding its recorded repertoire with two new album projects.
