Reznik”, a new production that invites audiences to engage with renowned stars
of the classical music world in an entertaining and personal exchange of words
and music. For the first time, both live and internet audiences come to know the
personalities of the men and women behind the instruments. Members of the
Chicago Symphony Orchestra, the Lyric Opera Orchestra, Ars Viva Orchestra and
international soloists join pianist and host Yana Reznik in music making,
either prepared classical masterpieces or spontaneous improvisations.

cross-generational population that lives on the social media platforms of our
interconnected world. The experience continues as “Playful Talk” live studio
attendees get an exclusive opportunity to dine with Yana and her guest artists
