SUMMARY:“Rite of Spring”—Rachmaninoff/Stravinsky
DESCRIPTION:Two monumental works\, two Russian ex-pats of the same aristocratic background – and two divergent extremes. One a master of nostalgia and a formidable pianist\, follows in the footsteps of Chopin. The other\, a trailblazer\, scandalizer and collaborator of Picasso delights in breaking old molds – though harking back to traditional Russian folk material – and ushers in a new age in music\, conceptually aligned with Cubism. Stravinsky’s Rite of Spring shocked tout-Paris and sparked riots (scenes from the film Coco Chanel will be shown). Rachmaninoff’s Sonata in G minor for Cello and Piano was written after a course of hypnotherapy for “composers block\,” out of which emerged a work of virtuosity and grandeur\, with his characteristic flourishes and a Russian Belle Époque sensibility. “Terrifyingly difficult” for the piano\, it is a virtual piano concerto – not to downplay the soulful melodic role of the cello. \nMichael Chertock\, piano; Yehuda Hanani\, cello; Enes Pektas\, baritone \nJoin us for an Afterglow Reception on the Mahaiwe stage following the concert! You are invited to meet the artists and enjoy bites and beverages by Authentic Eats by Oleg.
