Diana Grasselli - Cirque du Soleil Presentation
This was a fun project requested and inspired by Cirque du Soleil, during which I had the great fortune to work with these wonderful, creative artists and friends in the beautiful Varsity Theater in Minneapolis. I am so grateful for the confluence of friends, supporters and audience members that entered that gorgeous space to make that music that night.
