Pianist Boris Berman performs Valentin Silvestrov’s music for solo piano

Silvestrov is the most important Ukrainian composer of our time. He attracted attention in 1960s as one of the “underground Soviet modernists” who were keen on discovering new ways of musical expression, different from those approved by the Soviet officialdom.

Within Silvestrov’s prolific output the piano plays an important role as an instrument particularly suitable for intimate confession. This program presents a panorama of his music for solo piano, from the dodecaphonic works of 1960s through the recent corpus of short and soft Bagatelles.

100% of ticket sales for this event will benefit the Ukranian people.

All attendees will be asked to show proof of Covid-19 vaccination, including booster. Masks are to be worn while inside the Big Barn. Capacity is limited to 70%.
