Harris Shilakowsky's LIVE STREAMING SHOWS at ShilakowskyArts.com
Its free. Shilakowsky will demonstrate the violin, tell you about instruments & "outfits", sheet music, lessons and other things that you'll want to know as you or your beginning violinist will find helpful when planning to join your school orchestra.
solo piano pieces performed by Dr. Sarah Tocco and the popular Kreutzer Sonata by Beethoven will be performed by Tocco-Shilakowsky Duo.
Sarah’s CD of music by Chopin, Brahms and Schubert has been described as “beautifully moving” and “a wonderful rendition of Brahms with depth and insightful interpretation.” She is also music director at First Parish in Westwood and has been a guest lecturer at UMass-Lowell and Northeastern University.
To commemorate the 250th anniversary of Beethoven's birth, this violin-piano duo recital is dedicated to two of the most challenging works by Beethoven, 'The Kreutzer sonata' for violin and piano and 'Waldstein' sonata for solo piano. Both works encompass Beethoven's edge to push the limits of each instrument to the highest caliber possible. Please join us, it is sure to be an exciting afternoon experiencing the mastery of Beethoven. ...We might sneak some other composers in alongside Beethoven!
