SUMMARY:Close Encounters With Music: “Rite of Spring” - Rachmaninoff / Stravinsky
DESCRIPTION:TICKETS\n\n$30 – $55  \n$30 Upper Balcony\n$55 Orchestra and Mezzanine \nTwo 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 “composer’s block\,” out of which emerged a work of virtuosity and grandeur\, with his characteristic flourishes and a Russian Bell 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
