 citativo-Fantasia: Ben moderato\nAllegretto poco mosso\n\n\n\nwith Mark Pe
 skanov\, violin\, and Jonathan Feldman\, piano\n  \nAmerican virtuoso vio
 linist and artistic visionary Mark Peskanov was born in Odesa. Peskanov sa
 ng before he could walk or talk\, and soon became a star violin student at
  the famed Stolyarsky school. At fifteen\, he emigrated to the United Stat
 es\, where he was immediately accepted at the Aspen Music Festival and the
  Juilliard School. \nHis phenomenal facility and musicianship won him both
  the Aspen and Juilliard concerto competitions\, bringing him to the notic
 e of Isaac Stern and Mstislav Rostropovich and rocketing him into the top 
 echelons of the music world. Upon his debut with the Chicago Symphony\, th
 e Chicago Tribune called him a “sensational soloist.” The Cleveland
  Plain Dealer proclaimed\, “Violinist Adds Glory to Odessa” and the 
 New York Times declared\, “Mark Peskanov is a tremendous young violinis
 t and his Friday evening concert at Carnegie Hall was a triumph…He has i
 t all—technique\, temperament\, and taste.” \nPeskanov is a staunch ch
 ampion of American composers. He premiered the John Williams Concerto with
  the St. Louis Symphony\, and the Stanley Wolfe Concerto (written for Pesk
 anov) with the New York Philharmonic. He has performed more than fifty con
 certos with virtually every major U.S. orchestra and in Europe\, the Middl
 e East\, Australia\, South America and Japan. Peskanov’s major accolades
  include the Avery Fischer Career Grant\, the first Frederick R. Mann Awar
 d\, and Carnegie Hall’s first Isaac Stern Award. \nPeskanov inaugurated 
 Tokyo’s Suntory Hall with Yo-Yo Ma and Stern\, and Weill Recital Hall wi
 th Stern\, Midori and Gil Shaham. Collaborating with these colleagues prom
 pted Peskanov to turn intensively to the chamber music repertoire’s more
  intimate\, complex\, and dialogical possibilities. His delight in chamber
  music\, his independent artistic vision\, and his desire to mentor promis
 ing musicians as he had been mentored\, led to Peskanov’s present role. 
 Since 2005\, he is president and artistic/executive director of Bargemusic
 \, New York City’s cultural icon in Brooklyn Bridge Park. Over more than
  three decades of artistic involvement with Bargemusic\, Peskanov has cura
 ted in the neighborhood of five thousand chamber concerts\, encompassing a
  vast range of genres and styles in hundreds of concerts annually. Under h
 is leadership Bargemusic continues to evolve as an innovative\, influentia
 l\, and integral component of New York City’s cultural world. \nPeskanov
  is known for his openness to an astonishing range of music and artists at
  all stages of their careers. Muses the New York Times\, “One reason t
 hat openness seems to come so easily to Mr. Peskanov is that few proposals
  crossing his desk are likely to outpace his own vision of what Bargemusic
  can be.” \n  \nRecognized by colleagues and critics worldwide as a lea
 ding chamber musician and collaborative pianist\, Jonathan Feldman has p
 erformed with some of the world’s most legendary musicians\, including v
 iolinists Nathan Milstein\, Itzhak Perlman\, Gil Shaham\, Kyung Wha Chung\
 , Joshua Bell\, Yehudi Menuhin\, Augustin Hadelich\, cellists Pierre Fourn
 ier\, Zara Nelsova\, Harvey Shapiro\, and flutists James Galway and Emanue
 l Pahud.A graduate of The Juilliard School\, Mr. Feldman joined its facult
 y in 1989 and became chairman of the school’s collaborative piano depart
 ment from 1991 until 2015. He was invited to join the collaborative piano 
 faculty of New England Conservatory in 2010 and completed his tenure there
  in 2024.  He was asked to help out\, and is currently teaching\, at the 
 USC Thornton School in Los Angeles for the 2024-25 year.  He has given ma
 ster classes throughout the United States and the Far East and has lecture
 d at international festivals and competitions. He is the Director of Colla
 borative Piano at the Music Academy of the West in Santa Barbara\, Califor
 nia\, a post he has held since 2005. He has appeared in other summer festi
 vals\, such as Tanglewood\, Bridgehampton\, Music from Angel Fire\, Vail B
 ravo Festival\, the Hidden Valley Music Seminars\, the Cape Cod Chamber Mu
 sic Festival and the Collaborative Piano Institute.  He has performed wit
 h the Chamber Music Society of Lincoln Center in New York City and was a f
 eatured performer in a Live From Lincoln Center with Gil Shaham.  For ove
 r twenty years\, he performed regularly with the New York Philharmonic as 
 a keyboard player and appeared in many concerts with the New York Philharm
 onic Chamber Ensembles. Jonathan Feldman has recorded for Angel/EMI\, RCA
  Red Seal\, DGG\, Columbia Masterworks\, Naxos\, Nonesuch\, Summit\, Avie

DESCRIPTION:RESILIENCE\nLost and Reclaimed Voices from the Holocaust\nDesi
 rée Ruhstrat\, violin\nMelissa Reardon\, viola\nWendy Sutter\, cello \nRe
 silience is an intimate and deeply moving concert project in which three a
 cclaimed artists of\ninternational stature come together to restore music 
 silenced by the Holocaust to the living repertoire.\nViolinist Desirée Ru
 hstrat\, violist Melissa Reardon\, and cellist Wendy Sutter—each a leade
 r in the\nclassical music world—unite in a program devoted to extraordin
 ary chamber works by composers\nwhose lives and careers were shaped\, inte
 rrupted\, or extinguished by Nazi persecution. Through\nsolo\, duo\, and s
 tring trio repertoire\, Resilience offers both remembrance and renewal\, a
 llowing\nvoices nearly erased by history to speak again with urgency and c
 larity.\nThe program features music by composers such as Erwin Schulhoff\,
  Gideon Klein\, Schul\,\nHermann\, and Hans Gál\, including Gál’s Stri
 ng Trio in F-sharp minor\, Op. 104 and Serenade\, Op.\n41. Alongside these
  recognized works\, Resilience incorporates chamber pieces that have only\
 nrecently resurfaced—some drawn directly from archival sources and priva
 te holdings\, and in certain\ncases not performed publicly for decades\, i
 f not since the period immediately following the Second\nWorld War.\nThese
  works are presented not as historical artifacts\, but as living music—e
 xpressive\, daring\, and\nprofoundly human. The program’s flexible struc
 ture alternates between solo\, duo\, and trio\nperformances\, creating con
 trast\, intimacy\, and narrative flow while highlighting the individuality
  of\neach composer’s voice. Designed for chamber-scale halls and series\
 , the concert can be adapted in\nlength and format to suit a wide range of
  venues.\nViolinist Desirée Ruhstrat brings to this project a long-standi
 ng commitment to rediscovering\nsuppressed repertoire. As founder of the B
 lack Oak Ensemble\, her work on the acclaimed album\nSilenced Voices—rec
 ognized by the Chicago Tribune\, Fanfare\, and WQXR—has been instrumenta
 l\nin returning forgotten composers to the concert stage. Her scholarship 
 and musical insight form a\ncentral pillar of Resilience.\nShe is joined b
 y Grammy-nominated violist Melissa Reardon\, a member of the Borromeo Stri
 ng\nQuartet and Artistic Director of the Portland Chamber Music Festival. 
 Praised for her “elegant” and\n“virtuosic” performances\, Reardon 
 brings a wide-ranging artistic voice shaped by international\ntouring\, le
 adership in major chamber organizations\, and collaborations across classi
 cal and\ncontemporary traditions.\nCellist Wendy Sutter—hailed by the Wa
 ll Street Journal as “one of the great leading cellists of the\nclassica
 l stage”—completes the trio. Renowned for her intensity and expressive
  range\, Sutter has\nperformed as a soloist on five continents with major 
 orchestras and leading conductors\, while also\nshaping contemporary music
  through decades-long collaborations with composers including Philip\nGlas
 s\, Tan Dun\, and Steve Reich. Her career bridges the classical canon and 
 the modern\navant-garde\, bringing urgency and depth to music that demands
  remembrance.\nTogether\, Ruhstrat\, Reardon\, and Sutter form an ensemble
  of rare authority and sensitivity.\nResilience is more than a concert: it
  is an act of artistic restoration\, a testament to creative\nendurance\, 
 and a powerful affirmation that music silenced by violence can—and must
 —be heard\nagain.

DESCRIPTION:From Paris to Vermont — A Musical Lineage 75 Years in the Ma
 king\n \nThis program explores the rich compositional legacy connected to
  Kinhaven’s co-founder\, Dorothy Dushkin\, her brother-in-law—violini
 st and arranger Samuel Dushkin— and a circle of musicians who studied in
  Paris under the legendary Nadia Boulanger. This recital includes fun mus
 ic by Stravinsky\, Copland\, Gershwin\, Caroline Shaw\, and a few other Am
 erican composers that are closely connected to this legacy. \n\nDorothy/
 ”Darby” Dushkin – Berceuse for Nadia (1949) Chicago – 3~ Darby was
  a composer and Co-Founder of the Kinhaven Music School which began in 195
 2\, Prior to this\, she was the co-Founder of what is now the Music Instit
 ute of Chicago in 1931\n\nIgor Stravinsky/Samuel Dushkin – Divertimento 
 IV. b) Variation & c) Coda – 4~ Sam Dushkin collaborated closely with Ig
 or Stravinsky in the composition of his Violin Concerto. Stravinsky also c
 omposed his Duo Concertante and his Divertimento\, both for violin and pia
 no\, to play with Dushkin on concert tours. \nIgor Stravinsky/Sam Dushkin 
 – Berceuse from The Firebird – 1′ Stravinsky and Sam worked together
  on this transcription together\, but this piece is also connected to anot
 her composer on his album\, Bruce Adolphe and ultimately to Kinhaven and S
 am Dushkin via Kyung-wha Chung. \nGershwin/Dushkin – Short Story 2:30’
  This was arranged by Samuel and was based on two earlier Gershwin piano p
 ieces. It was a collaboration between the two friends and premiered in 192
 5\, with Dushkin frequently performing and recording the piece. \nAaron Co
 pland: from Two Pieces for Violin and Piano 1926 – I. Ukulele 4:40’ an
 d II. Nocturne 6’ (11’) Copland dedicated these to pieces to Samuel. A
 fter Copland’s studies in Paris in the early 1920s\, he believed it was 
 essential for American composers to gain recognition in Europe as well as 
 in the United States. With this goal\, he returned to Paris in 1926 and wr
 ote two new works for an all-American concert that Nadia Boulanger was org
 anizing. He invited violinist Samuel Dushkin to perform them with him. \nC
 aroline Shaw – Broad and Free – 8’ Inspired by the 1905 NYTimes acco
 unt of Fritz Kreisler’s recital at Carnegie Hall – Samuel Dushkin stud
 ied with Fritz Kreisler. Caroline attended Kinhaven’s Senior Session.\n\
 nAllen Shawn – Winter Sketchbook IV. Presto 3:40’ Attended Kinhaven’
 s Senior Session in the 1960’s \nNicolas Scherzinger – New Commission/
 Violin and Piano work 3’ Kinhaven’s Composer in Residence for 15 years

 ’s Composer in Residence (as of 2025) \nwith Deborah Buck\, violin\, and
  Orli Shaham\, piano \n\nBiographies\n\nViolinist Deborah Buck has been ha
 iled by The Strad for her “surpassing degree of imagination and vibrant 
 sound.” Equally at home in recital halls\, symphony stages\, recording s
 tudios\, opera houses\, and even on Saturday Night Live\, she maintains a 
 versatile career as a chamber musician\, concertmaster\, recitalist\, educ
 ator\, and artistic leader. \nRecent performance highlights include recita
 ls at BargeMusic (NYC) with pianists Orli Shaham and Orion Weiss\, perform
 ances on series such as GatherNYC\, Lyrica Chamber Music (NJ)\, Reflection
 s in Music (NYC)\, Sands Point/Four Seasons of Music (NY)\, Small Spaces/O
 rchestra Lumos (CT)\, and annually at the Telluride Chamber Music Festival

 oint arrangement of Coleridge-Taylor Perkinson’s Louisiana Blues Strut w
 ith percussionist Yousif Sheronick. She was also featured\, to critical ac
 claim\, on a recent Avie Records release devoted to the music of Bruce Wol
 osoff. In 2026\, Buck will receive two new commissions by Nicolas Scherzin
 ger and Max Grafe as part of an upcoming recording project celebrating the
  legacy of new music fostered at Kinhaven Music School. \nFrom 2002 to 201

 niversity. \nA consummate musician recognized for her grace\, subtlety\, a
 nd brilliance\, the pianist Orli Shaham is hailed by critics on four conti
 nents. The New York Times called her a “brilliant pianist\,” The Ch
 icago Tribune referred to her as “a first-rate Mozartean\,” and Londo
 n’s Guardian said Ms. Shaham’s playing at the Proms was “perfectio
 n.” \nOrli Shaham has performed with many of the major orchestras around
  the world\, and has appeared in recital internationally\, from Carnegie H

 n’s Desire\nTchaikovsky-Pletnev excerpts from The Nutcracker Suite\nRach
 maninoff Two preludes\, Op. 23\nChopin Heroic Polonaise\nMussorgsky Pictu
 res at an Exhibition\n\nwith Asiya Korepanova\, piano \n\nBiography\nThe p
 ianist who performed the complete Rachmaninoff solo piano works within th
 e composer’s 150th-anniversary year in 2023\, Asiya Korepanova is a pian
 istic powerhouse hailed as a “tremendously gifted pianist who exhibits a
  singular affinity for Rachmaninoff’s Russian romantic idiom and possess
 es the blazing technique to fully realize his distinctive scores” (South
  Florida Classical Review)\, who is also highly recognized as a composer\,
  visual artist\, and poet. \nA herald of an enormous repertoire encompassi
 ng over 60 piano concertos and solo works ranging from early Baroque per
 iod to music of living composers\, Asiya is a quintessential completist. \
 nShe finds unique joy in performing collections of works such as the 24 Li
 szt Etudes or the entire Well-Tempered Clavier by Bach. Her emotionally ch
 arged and colorfully nuanced performances have gained her the admiration o
 f audiences and resulted in many repeat engagements. \nAsiya\, a pianist a
 nd composer\, draws her musical inspiration from the legacy of Dmitry Shos
 takovich\, having studied composition under his direct disciple\, Albert L
 eman. \nShe is the author of original works in multiple genres and instrum
 entations. Her historic solo piano transcriptions of Richard Strauss’ 
 ‘Ein Heldenleben’\, Rachmaninoff’s Cello Sonata\, Tchaikovsky’s 
 ‘Manfred’ Symphony\,  Mussorgsky’s ‘Songs and Dances of Death’
  have placed her among today’s formidable transcribers\, and attracted 
 attention of  world-renown pianists such as Lang Lang and Polina Osetinsk
 aya\, who commissioned and recorded Asiya’s transcriptions. \nThe most r
 ecent composition events include the world premiere recording of Asiya’
 s concerto for alto saxophone and piano\, Poéme\, performed by Thomas Gil
 es and Liana Pailodze Harron\; the publication of her transcription of Ra
 chmaninoff’s cello sonata\; the premiere of her Piano Quintet ‘I marve
 l at the sky’\, commissioned by the Third Dimension Music Festival\; and
  the premiere of Con Brio for two pianos\, performed with her duo partner 
 Ilya Kazantsev as a part of the Dranoff Two Piano Foundation series. \nAn 
 avid chamber musician\, Asiya collaborates with a wide array of musicians\
 , such as David Shifrin\, the Balourdet Quartet\, the Hermitage Piano Trio
 \, Milena Pajaro-van de Stadt\, Rodney Marsalis\, Julian Schwarz\, Eleni K
 atz\, Irina Muresanu\, and Alexander Fiterstein. She regularly performs as
  part of the ’88 by 20′ piano duo with her friend and former classmate
 \, Grammy-nominated pianist Ilya Kazantsev. \nUninhibited in her artistic 
 expression\, Asiya is also sought after her work as a visual artist and po
 et. Her multimedia projects featuring original poetry and visual art ser
 ve as interpretive commentary for a particular cycle of piano works. These
  cycles include Liszt’s Transcendental Etudes\, Bach’s Well-Tempered
  Clavier\, Tchaikovsky’s 18 Morceaux\, Op. 72\, and\, most recently\, M
 ussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition. Asiya’s live performances of th
 ese compositions have astounded audiences and organizers alike. \nCaring a
 bout the development of society\, in 2017 Asiya founded Music for Minds\,
  a non-profit organization that brings classical performances into classro
 oms and creates music festivals featuring unique programming. From 2017 th
 rough 2019\, Asiya directed her brainchild ‘Festival Baltimore\,’ a tw
 o-week chamber music series and summer academy dedicated to the performanc
 e and study of complete cycles\, one of Music for Mind’s projects. Her n
 ew concert series\, ‘Flatiron Festival’\, premiered in June 2025 in Ne
 w York City and scheduled to continue in 2026.  \nBorn in Izhevsk\, Russi
 a\, to a musical family\, Asiya began learning the piano at 4 years old fr
 om her mother Soreya\, her first piano teacher. At the age of 6\, she was 
 taught to read music in orchestral clefs by her father Sergey\, an exempla
 ry composer\, and started composing her own music. At 9\, she made her orc
 hestral debut\, playing Mozart Concerto No. 8 with her own cadenza\, and g
 ave her first full philharmonic recital. \n  \nSimultaneously\, she began
  studying composition with Albert Leman\, the chair of Moscow \nConservato
 ry’s composition department and a student of Dmitry Shostakovich\, conti
 nuing working with him until his passing in 1998. That short period has in
 fluenced all future aspects of her musical and artistic development. \n  
 \nIn 2012\, Asiya moved to the United States at the invitation of renowned
  pianist and maestro Santiago Rodriguez\, to earn a Doctoral degree under 
 his guidance at the University of Miami. Later that year\, she was awarded
  the Gold Medal at the Nena Wideman International Piano Competition—an a
 chievement that proved invaluable in establishing her concertizing career 
 in the U.S. In 2017\, she added a University of Miami Artist Diploma degre
 e to her portfolio\, having earned it in the studios of Kevin Kenner and T
 ian Ying. \n  \nAsiya has since continued to garner national attention wi
 th performances at the Stern Auditorium at Carnegie Hall\, the Phillips Co
 llection\, the Newport Classical Festival\, Miami International Piano Fest
 ival\, San Francisco International Piano Festival\, and many other notable
  series\, symphony orchestras\, and festivals throughout the country. She 
 has been featured on CNN\, NPR stations\, WFMT\, and WETA. \n  \nIn 2025-
 26 season\, Asiya makes her debut at the Tippet Rise Art Center\, returns 
 to the San Francisco Piano Festival and Friends of Chamber Music of Miami 
 series\; premieres Amy Beach piano concerto in Argentina\, making her debu
 t with Buenos Aires Philharmonic\; debuts with  National Symphony of Chil
 e\, Alabama Symphony and Abilene Philharmonic\; tours with the Balourdet Q
 uartet and records her debut album with Reference Recording label. In June
  2026\, she directs the second season of her  Flatiron Festival\, a two-w
 eek chamber series on Manhattan\, NYC. \nShe also anticipates the releases
  of scores of her compositions: the Poéme for alto saxophone and piano\, 
 Con Brio for two pianos\, and Triptych for clarinet and piano\, as well as
  her transcriptions for piano solo: Manfred Symphony by Peter Tchaikovsky\
 , Songs and Dances of Death by Mussorgsky\, and various works by Chopin\, 
 Berg\, Tchaikovsky\, Fauré\, and Bach. \n\nAsiya and her husband Dmitry r
 eside in a forest-rich Boston suburb\, where she is free to practice or li
 sten to music any time of the day or night. She is an avid runner and hike
 r\, and a vocal advocate for a clean lifestyle.
