New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Young violinist, singer, and actress Lucia Micarelli will release her debut live album 'An Evening With Lucia Micarelli' on
September 28, distributed by the Arts
Music division at Warner
Music Group. The physical version of the album will be released October 5. Lucia attended the Juilliard School from the age of 11, where she studied with the legendary pedagogue
Dorothy DeLay. She later continued her studies with Pinchas Zukerman at the Manhattan School of Music. She has performed with a host of musical superstars and also had a leading role in HBO's series "Treme," about post-Katrina New Orleans. Her tremendous 2018 includes this live album release and a major U.S. fall headlining tour. 'An Evening With Lucia Micarelli' features 16 songs, culled from a live concert PBS special that has been viewed by millions since it began airing nationwide last spring. Lucia is also featured on the cover of
Strings Magazine's
September issue.
Lucia is an animated, emotional performer, and an insatiable listener who selected a wildly diverse setlist for this concert. She gracefully segues from the exploratory works of Ravel, like his "Sonata for Violin and Cello," to beloved jazz standards like "
Nature Boy" and "Spring Can Really Hang You Up The Most." Also included are works by French composer
Camille Saint-Saens and Samuel Barber. Lucia sets the mood quickly with opener "Ladies Fancy," a gripping, full-throttle old-time fiddle tune that she and her band shine on. "
This City" is an Americana love letter that her co-star
Steve Earle wrote for the city of New Orleans and performed on 'Treme,' while Lucia closes down the show with fireworks - a strings rendition of Zeppelin's "Kashmir."

The album was recorded on June 3, 2017 at the
Music Academy of the West in
Santa Barbara, CA. Lucia's ensemble includes one additional violinist, a violist, two cellists, piano, bass, guitar, drums, and percussion. The PBS version of 'An Evening With Lucia Micarelli' has been airing since March, broadcast over 400 times in over 110 markets in that month alone. The concert film also tells Lucia's inspiring story, in which she overcame a terrible accident that almost ended her career.
Lucia says she has very few memories without a violin in her hand, and was performing with symphony orchestras by age 6. She has been a featured soloist in two of Josh Groban's world tours. She toured extensively with
Chris Botti and was featured in his "Live From Boston" PBS special, as well as Barbra Streisand's 2013 international tour. She has released two solo albums, "Music From A Farther Room" and "Interlude."
