]]> What a terrific concert yesterday at the Blessed Sacrament Church on the Upper West Side. Soprano Sofia Dimitrova performed a new arrangement of my Three Elegies, and Stani Dimitrova premiered my first Violin Sonata. Jenny Huang was superb accompanying on piano. I received wonderful comments from everyone, so thank you. And many thanks especially to these wonderful musicians who bring new music to life.

It was a beautiful day — Mother’s Day, as it happens — and after the concert we took a walk over to Cafe Mozart to relax! (Click pics for larger size.)

Stani Dimitrova will premiere my first Violin Sonata on May 11 at 3pm, with Jenny Huang gracing the piano. The venue is the historic Blessed Sacrament Church at 152 West 71 in Manhattan. Also on the bill is Sofia Dimitrova who will be performing a special piano/vocal arrangement of my Three Elegies, written just for this occasion.

Violin, soprano, and piano make a terrific combination! Other pieces are by Mozart, Saint-Saëns, and my colleagues Evan Lewis and Rafael Fusco. The performance is being presented by the Musica Bella Orchestra.

Admission is by donation. Click the image for larger size!
