SUMMARY:Breaking Boundaries
DESCRIPTION:\n\nBreaking Boundaries\nInitiated by Grammy-nominated con
 ductor Vladimir Gorbik, Breaking Boundaries is a unique project geared
  toward uniting the shared creative efforts of American and Russian co
 mposers and performers during a time of heightened political tension. 
 The artistic vision for this concert places in front of the audience t
 he human desire for beauty, transcending cultural barriers, expressed 
 through a mutual heritage of music. Made up of performers who hail fro
 m Anglophone and/or Slavic countries, the strings of the Capital Symph
 ony Orchestra will realize the diverse program chosen by Gorbik. In th
 e words of the conductor: At my invitation, Adelphi University profess
 or and composer Nicholas Reeves, will begin the evening with a brief l
 ecture on the need for citizens from different nations, presenting the
  potential for conflict, to develop an ongoing dialogue through numero
 us musical collaborations.Breaking Boundaries, the first in a series o
 f concerts dedicated to peaceful international relations, will be prem
 iered at St. John Nepomucene Catholic Church (411 East 66th Street and
  1st Avenue, New York, NY).The concert will take place on October 30 a
 t 7:00 p.m. Comprised of two parts, the evening opens with Peter Ilyic
 h Tchaikovskys Serenade for Strings in C major, Op. 48.  This composi
 tion is a prime example of the composers ability to unite the artistic
  ideals of Eastern and Western concert music. Tchaikovskys works conti
 nue to be well-loved by Americans, while never abandoning their deeply
  rooted Russian provenance.In the second part of the concert is the mu
 sic of another Slav, Bulgarian composer Alexander Vladigerov. His Vari
 ations on the Bulgarian Folk Song Dilmano, Dilbero, Op. 2 for solo pia
 no will be performed by New York based multi-award winning Bulgarian-b
 orn piano dynamo (Time Out New York) Tania Stavreva. Her energetic pla
 ying has been described as Unique! (AXS.com), World-Class (Classicalit
 e News), and Edgy Stavrevas got rhythm (The Huffington Post).Near the 
 end of the concert, Reeves Concertino Campane for solo piano and strin
 g orchestra will receive its premiere performance. Specifically writte
 n for Stavreva, this work is based on the acoustics of bells found thr
 oughout different cultures, promising to showcase her rhythmic intensi
 ty at the keyboard.Anna Clynes plaintive Within Her Arm ends the eveni
 ng in a hushed air of contemplation and embrace. Originally from the U
 .K, but now based in the U.S., Clyne wrote this work for the Los Angel
 es Philharmonic in memory of her mother. Alex Ross of the New Yorker d
 escribes this composition as, a fragile elegy for fifteen strings; int
 ertwining voices of lament bring to mind English Renaissance masterpie
 ces of Thomas Tallis and John Dowland.\n\nFor more information visit h
