Premiere of David Finko's tour de force for Soprano and Piano

 

Dear Friend,

On Sunday, November 29 at 7:00 PM EST, immerse yourself in an evening of Romantic tragedy with soprano Holly Gash and me as we premiere David Finko's tour de force opera for soprano and piano, The Diaries of Maria Bashkirtseva.  This 2018 masterpiece captures the emotional turmoil of the Russian painter and diarist as she faces death from tuberculosis at age 25.  Alongside songs and preludes of Rachmaninoff, and the premiere of Finko's Piano Sonata No. 5 (2020), this will be a program of high drama and power!
