Beyond NYC: Piano Recital by Natalia Lavrova at Union Arts Center in Sparkill, NY
A Solo Piano Recital of Romantic Fantasies and Variations by Rachmaninoff, Schubert, Beethoven and more at Sparkill Concert Series on Sunday, January 6, 2019, at 3 pm
Natalia Lavrova, a sensible and highly sophisticated pianist, presents a program of fairytale-like fantasies told through the music. Always searching for new additions to her ever expanding active repertoire, with this program Lavrova takes on some of the pieces considered to be the most challenging such as Rachmaninoff’s Variations on a theme of Corelli or Liszt’s Dante Sonata.
This potent mix of music which is “architecturally” structured in its form as Lavrova puts it yet inspired by the dreams and tales requires a deep understanding of the scores and an impeccable technique. Both will surely be appreciated by the audience. Lavrova’s appearances with recitals and concert performances around the world brought her high acclaim and enthusiastic reviews for her style and command of the instrument. The virtuosic program on January 6, 2019 is promising to be a gratifying experience for every music lover. For tickets click here.
