Past Event: Adam Millstein, Violin and Dominic Cheli, Piano
The dynamic duo of violinist Adam Millstein and pianist Dominic Cheli performs works by innovative Czech composers who profoundly impacted the trajectory of 20th-century music. Works by Janáček and Martinů appear alongside two lesser-known composers: Vítĕzslava Kaprálová, who was on the threshold of a successful international career as a composer and conductor when she died in exile in France at the age of twenty–five, and Erwin Schulhoff, a prolific and multi-faceted creative figure who was the subject of the Colburn-produced online series Schulhoff and More.
This concert is made possible by Erica Clark in recognition of the extraordinary Recovered Voices Initiative and the equally extraordinary virtuosity of the musicians, Adam Millstein and Dominic Cheli.
